There’s a drawing of a dragon.
Info:
The purple clay used to make the teapot comes from deep in the mountains near the city of Yixing in Jiangsu Province, contains many minerals that aid in creating a perfect teapot.
Iron helps the clay keep the water hot, which helps the tea infuse properly, and the quartz and other minerals in the clay create a double pored surface after being fired at between 1100 and 1800 degrees Celsius.
The highly porous quality of baked purple sand clay is what makes it an excellent material to make teapots from.
The microscopic holes not only allow the pot to adapt to drastic changes in temperature, but also allow the tea to "breathe" which brings out it's flavor and fragrance.
The delicate oils are absorbed into the walls of the pot, enhancing the flavor.
