Christie’s specialist Rufus Chen discovers how to brew the perfect cup of tea in a Yixing teapot.
Tea Drunk, a traditional Chinese tea house in East Village, New York, was the ideal location to present the contemporary Yixing teapots from The Irving Collection and also to find out more about the best practice for brewing tea in a Yixing purple clay teapot.
‘Generally speaking,’ explains Rufus Chen, a Chinese Works of Art specialist at Christie’s, ‘there are two main categories of Yixing purple clay teapot. The first one is called guanghuo (plain ware), which could be used for brewing tea; the second is huahuo (naturalistic ware).’

The 'flying bird' teapot is magnificent. It has such a soothing aesthetic. This tea shop is definitely on my to-do list when I travel to New York. I've now seen/read so many positive things about it!

Yasmeen Hashmi I’m in Philadelphia and I’d ~Love~to take a trip to New York just to go here. It looks magnificent....

I’ve been to Tea Drunk. It is a modest space but that lets you focus on the tea. I like having Ukrainian pierogies up the street at Veselka to offset the caffeine hit of a tea tasting!

Amazingly beautiful and elegant porcelain creations!!! This ginger tea pot does look unbelievably realistic!

This video was really insightful. I didn’t realize how ceremonious tea could be; but it makes sense. The artistry involved in the pot, the careful selection of the tea, the nuances in steeping - beautiful!

This is more about the tea pots than it is about “how to brew tea”

Exactly, it's an artform. To be called a master teapot maker, you need at least 30 years of experience and a jury to verify your work
