A small glass teapot built for tea-water separation

The Qinzhong teapot (秦钟壶) is a 280ml borosilicate glass teapot with a built-in glass infuser, sized for one or two people. The name comes from its bell-like shape — wider at the base and narrower toward the top, after the traditional Chinese Qinzhong form.

The whole pot is transparent, which means you can watch the tea colour develop as it steeps. That's useful for timing lighter teas like greens and whites, where a few seconds can change the flavour. The amber-coloured glass handle stays comfortable to grip, and the deep red glass knob on the lid is a nice visual touch.

The borosilicate glass handles boiling water without issue and won't crack from temperature changes. You can also place it directly on an electric ceramic stove to keep the water warm during a session.

Teas that suit this pot

Works well with jasmine dragon pearls, white teas, lighter oolongs, and blooming flower teas — anything where you want to watch the leaves or blossoms open in clear glass.

For a simpler Western-style brew: 2-3g with a 2-3 minute steep works well.

Care

Rinse with warm water after each use and let it air dry. Hand washing is gentler on the glass than a dishwasher. Borosilicate glass handles temperature swings well, but avoid going straight from a cold fridge to boiling water. The glass won't hold onto flavours between sessions, so you can brew different teas without carryover.

All our glassware ships in double-layered bubble wrap with cardboard inserts.
