Blue Ceramic Gong Fu Teapot, 150ml
This is a small-format ceramic teapot designed for Gong Fu Cha, the traditional Chinese brewing method that uses short steeps and a high leaf-to-water ratio. It holds 150ml, which is just right for one or two small cups per brew. The body is ceramic, decorated with a blue dragon motif. Hand wash only. Intended for loose-leaf tea use. Not microwave or dishwasher safe.
The Benefit
Your Gong Fu Ritual, Finally Has a Home
There is something about a teapot this small that just slows you down, honey. No more rushing, no more oversized mugs you fill halfway. This little blue ceramic Gong Fu teapot holds exactly enough for one or two proper cups, and that is the whole point. It turns your tea break into an actual moment. Believe me, once you brew this way, you will not go back.
Craft & Materials
A Dragon on Your Tea Table
The body is ceramic, sturdy and smooth, decorated with a blue dragon that has a way of making the whole thing feel a little special without being fussy about it. At 150ml, it is sized for Gong Fu Cha the way it was always meant to be done: small, intentional, repeated. Mind you, this is a hand-wash-only piece, so treat it gently and it will stay beautiful.
In the Cup
Short Steeps, Big Flavor, Every Time
Picture this: a small pile of oolong leaves, a quick rinse, then steep after steep, each one a little different from the last. That is Gong Fu Cha, and this 150ml ceramic teapot is built for exactly that. You pour into a tiny cup, you sip, you pour again. It is unhurried and lovely. Well now, that is what tea is supposed to feel like.
Everyday Use
Small Pot, Surprisingly Practical
Hold on now, before you think 150ml is too small, let me tell you: for Gong Fu brewing, it is the right size. You are not making a pot to share at the breakfast table. You are making four or five short steeps for yourself, each one poured fresh and hot. The ceramic keeps the heat well, and the dragon motif means it looks good sitting right there on your counter between sessions.

FAQ
Your Questions, Answered
How many cups does the 150ml teapot make per brew?
At 150ml, this Gong Fu teapot fills one generous small cup or two very small ones per steep. The beauty of Gong Fu Cha is that you repeat those short steeps several times with the same leaves, so you end up with quite a few cups from a single session.
Can I use this teapot in the microwave or dishwasher?
No, dear. This ceramic teapot is hand wash only. Skip the microwave and the dishwasher both. A gentle rinse with warm water after each use is all it needs, and it will stay in good shape for a long time.
Is this teapot suitable for all types of loose-leaf tea?
It is designed for loose-leaf tea brewed Gong Fu style, so oolongs, pu-erh, and Chinese greens are a natural fit. The small 150ml size and short steep format work best with teas that open up over multiple infusions.
What does Gong Fu Cha mean and do I need experience to use this pot?
Gong Fu Cha is a traditional Chinese brewing method using a small teapot, a high ratio of leaves to water, and many short steeps. No experience required, honestly. If you can boil water and count to thirty, you can brew Gong Fu style. This little pot makes it easy to start.
Is the dragon design painted on or part of the ceramic?
The blue dragon motif is part of the ceramic decoration on the teapot body. Based on the product description, this is the design as it comes. For care and longevity of the decoration, hand washing is recommended rather than machine washing.

Which teapot do you recommend for a beginner?
For beginners we often recommend a ceramic or glass teapot: easy to use, easy to clean, and they suit every kind of tea while you find your favorites.
How do I choose the right teapot size?
It depends on your habits. For one person, 10 to 17 oz is ideal. For a couple, aim for 20 to 34 oz, and for families or hosting, 34 oz and up.
Can I use the same teapot for different teas?
You can, but we recommend dedicated teapots for strong teas: unglazed clay and cast iron keep a memory of the tea. Glass, porcelain and stainless steel stay neutral between teas.
