Ceramic kettle Double Cranes

Here are two styles of teapots, one for the Xi Shi teapot and one for the waterdrop teapot.

The Xi Shi teapot is made in the classic Xi Shi shape, which is the most popular teapot shape in China. The appearance is characterized by rounded features and perfect symmetry.

The water drop teapot is named after its appearance and shape resembling water drops.

Symbolism of cranes in China

In China, the crane bird is considered the prince of all feathered creatures. It is the second most common bird symbol right after the phoenix and represents longevity, wisdom, nobility, and peace.

Cranes also symbolize long love and fidelity, as they always stay with one partner until death. This is why the teapot depicts two cranes, not just one.
