Among the ceramic tea sets, the Zisha tea set is the most famous. It emerged at the beginning of the Northern Song Dynasty (but the Zisha tea set with clear written records was found in the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty), and gradually became a unique and famous tea set, and prevailed in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Unlike ordinary pottery, the inside and outside of the purple sand tea set are not covered with glaze, but are made of unique pottery clay, namely purple clay, red clay and Tuanshan clay through kneading and roasting. The finished product of the Zisha tea set, purple like ripe grapes, red like red maple, yellow like ripe oranges, and ocher like blooming ink chrysanthemums, gorgeous and varied, it has hundreds of different shapes, As the so-called "Fang Fei" is one style, the circle has no shape, and the craftsmanship is exquisite, the color and luster are not complemented. Skilled craftsmen or celebrities often use steel knives instead of pens on the pot body to carve patterns of landscapes, flowers and birds, and engrave gold and stone calligraphy. The purple clay teapot has become an art treasure that integrates literature, painting, calligraphy, sculpture, gold and stone, and modeling. It enables people to appreciate art while tasting tea, and gain knowledge and enjoyment of beauty.
