Qin Quan: Weighing the World, Containing the Universe within the Pot.
Qin Quan, a classic Zisha teapot modeled after the weights used in the Qin Dynasty, carries the profoundness of history and the charm of culture. It is like a composed wise man, silently telling the stories of power and justice in the long river of time. Emperor Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the ages, was the founder of the Great Qin Empire and truly achieved the unification of China! What he achieved was not only the great unification in terms of political power and territory, but also the unification of the writing system, weights and measures, etc.
The lines of the body are simple and smooth, round yet without losing its dignity. The pot knob is like a bridge, small and exquisite, coordinated in proportion with the pot body, adding a touch of dynamic beauty. The spout is short and straight, with a smooth water flow, as if telling a story of decisiveness and determination.
The overall shape is simple, elegant, and coordinated in proportion, giving people a sense of stability and grandeur. The Qin Quan Pot is not just a pot, but also a symbol of spirit. It represents the wisdom of weighing the good and bad, implying that in a complex world, one should maintain inner balance and justice and make wise choices.
Use the Qin Quan Pot to make tea, feel the tea aroma permeating within the pot, as if one can taste the charm of history and the true meaning of life. It is a treasure in the tea culture and also your best choice for savoring life and pursuing quality.
