Feature: Made of refined ceramic, the teapot is characterized by a hand-painted Feitian motif (unique Chinese flying celestial beings originally from well-known Mogao Caves murals ). The figure is well painted in fine details and perfectly fits with the ‘background scene’ that was naturally created on plain ceramic in the kiln after being fired for 3 days and nights.

Note: A woodfired painted piece is usually accomplished by two steps as follows:
(I) A piece is made of unglazed or glazed clay then fired for a few days and nights straight under over 1300℃ using a lot of wood in the kiln before being painted as a normal piece is done.
(II) An artist will select a woodfired piece with a one-of-kind pattern or color resulting from firing which may come to him/her in a flash of inspiration. Then they will develop a scene, portrait, or object on the piece depending on its appearance before a second firing to protect the painting from fading.
