[Mù Chūn Life] 180ml Matte Glaze Honmaru Teapot by Master Ye Minxiang of Yingge

→ Product Introduction This teapot design centers around a charming onigiri (rice ball) shape, evoking the delightful appearance of a perfectly formed rice ball. Aptly named "Honmaru" (meaning main circle or origin), its form is rounded and full, making it a joy to behold. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this piece is crafted for exceptional usability. Drawing on years of experience, Master Yeh meticulously adjusts each creation, ensuring every item is both functional and durable. → Product Specifications Matte Glaze Honmaru Teapot Capacity: 180ml Dimensions: 8cm (width) x 12cm (length) x 8cm (height) → Purchase Considerations * Most products in this design 館 are handmade, and the glaze or ash deposit on each piece varies. This uniqueness is the charm of ceramic art. Once a piece sells out, it will not be restocked, and an identical item cannot be found. We apologize if a piece you admire is purchased by someone else; please explore other items in our design 館 or contact the designer for similar options. * Dimensions are measured by hand and may have a slight error of up to 0.5cm. * Minor marks may be present from the crafting process, as all items are handmade or semi-handmade. * Natural variations in glaze and ash deposits may occur during firing; this is a normal characteristic of our "NATURE GLAZE Studio" pieces, emphasizing the natural essence of ceramics. If you have any questions about the product, please send us a private message. * Product images are taken in a studio setting with adjusted lighting and environment. While no post-production editing is used, please refer to the actual product for color accuracy, as variations will not be considered defects. → Artist Introduction Master Yeh Min-Hsiang Apprenticed under Professor Wu Yu-Tang ◎ Experience 1979 Section Chief, Kiln Department, Sanxi Tang Ceramics Company 1986 Founder, Xiang Yi Ceramics Studio 1993 Consultant, Gantan German Company 1998 Glaze Technology Advisor, Thai Factory, Xin Zhu Ceramics Co., Ltd. 1998 Master, Ceramics Department, Yingge Vocational High School 2001 Consultant, Shandong Factory, Gantan German Company 2002 Vice President, Jiaxing Quanyou Crafts Products Co., Ltd. 2003 Production Manager, Shanghai Qidong Huatai Ceramics Products Co., Ltd. 2005 Glaze Technology Advisor, Malaysia Specialty Ceramics Company ◎ Exhibited Works 1995 Professor Wu Yu-Tang and Students Joint Exhibition 2010 Crystal Glaze Evaluation Exhibition, Taiwan Ceramic Museum (Item: Crystal Series Six-Color Cups) 2011 New Ceramic Product Evaluation Exhibition, Taiwan Ceramic Museum (Item: Sky Blue Ru Ware) 2011 Taiwan Ceramic Museum Taiwan Ceramic Brand Classic Exhibition (Item: Crystal Series Six-Color Cups) 2012 Golden Ceramic Art Award, Taiwan Ceramic Museum (Item: Happiness) 2012 Taiwan Excellent Craft Award (Item: Happiness) 2012 Taiwan Craft Design Competition, Food Culture Creative Product (Item: Abundance within Ru Ware) 2013 Selection for Taiwan Excellent Craft Award (Xiang Yi Ceramics Studio) 2013 Yingge Kiln Brand Project - Special Tableware Evaluation Exhibition (Sky Blue - Lucky Tea Set) 2013 Yingge Kiln Brand Project - Special Tableware Evaluation Exhibition (Raku Iron Speckle Glazed Bowl) 2013 Certificate of Taiwan Excellent Craft Award (Peony Pattern Incense Burner) 2014 Taiwan Creative Living‧New Ceramic Product Evaluation Exhibition - (Wavy Pot Tea Set) 2014 Yingge Kiln Brand Project - Trademark Licensing Evaluation - (Peony Pattern Incense Burner) 2014 Yingge Kiln Brand Project - Trademark Licensing Evaluation - (Perfect Harmony Tea Set) 2014 Yingge Kiln Brand Project - Trademark Licensing Evaluation - (Tea Leaf Green Glazed Covered Cup) 2014 New Taipei City Top Ten Premium Souvenirs, Creative Living Group Award - (Happiness Tea Set) 2015 Yingge Kiln Brand Project - Trademark Licensing Evaluation - (Elegant Pot) 2015 Yingge Kiln Brand Project - Trademark Licensing Evaluation - (Raku Cups - Golden Yellow, Red Gold, Green Gold, 3 Styles) 2015 Yingge Kiln Brand Project - Trademark Licensing Evaluation - (Happiness Tea Set) 2016 New Taipei City Top Ten Premium Souvenirs, Creative Living Group Award - (Lucky Tea Set) 2020 Nominated for the "2020 New Taipei City Featured Products Selection" in the "Life Essentials" category for its "Covered Bowl Tea Ware" 2021 Yingge Kiln Brand Project - Trademark Licensing Evaluation - (NATURE GLAZE Studio Coffee Filter Cup) 2022 National Taiwan Craft Research and Development Center - Taiwan Green Craft Selection - (NATURE GLAZE Studio Coffee Filter Cup) 2023 National Taiwan Craft Research and Development Center - Taiwan Green Craft Selection (Maze Filter Cup) 2023 National Taiwan Craft Research and Development Center - Taiwan Green Craft Selection (Small Edge Cup) 2025 "Where Things Belong" - Life Ritual Exhibition (NATURE GLAZE Studio Coffee Filter Cup) → Design Studio Story Located in Yingge, Taiwan, our ceramic studio is deeply rooted in Taiwan for both design and production, offering aesthetically pleasing and practical ceramic coffee ware.
