\u003cstrong\u003eLiufang Lianzi (Hexagonal Lotus Seed)\u003c\/strong\u003e teapot is a square adaptation of the classic round Lianzi (lotus seed) form. While retaining the plump, generous spirit of the original, this version transforms every element into a soft hexagonal shape. The body and lid are rendered in “soft hexagon” (hun liufang) — crisp edges blended with gentle curves, achieving a rare balance between the structural rigor of square ware and the warm fluidity of round ware. This demanding form requires exceptional skill, and contemporary artisan \u003cstrong\u003eLiu Ye\u003c\/strong\u003e executes it with masterful precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlights\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-label\"\u003eClay\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-value\"\u003eJiangpo Ni (Cinnabar Clay)\u003cbr\u003e\nFine texture, golden \u0026amp; silver specks\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-label\"\u003eCapacity\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-value\"\u003e240 cc\u003cbr\u003e\nIdeal for sharing or solo sessions\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-label\"\u003eForm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-value\"\u003eSoft hexagonal · Lotus seed\u003cbr\u003e\nRound-to-square fusion\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-label\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"highlight-value\"\u003eSix‑sided drooping ear\u003cbr\u003e\n“Heaven pressing earth” lid structure\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cul class=\"feature-list\"\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e▸ Soft hexagonal mastery\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eEach of the six facets is not completely flat but subtly concave in the center.
