00:00This is how a traditional Chinese enamel teapot is made.
00:04First, the artisan heats pieces of metal and shapes the body of the teapot, including its spout.
00:10Next, the rim, lid, and handle are carefully crafted.
00:15The spout is then welded using a mixture of silver, copper, and zinc at around 800 degrees Celsius.
00:23After that, two small side handles are attached to the teapot.
00:27The teapot is soaked in an alum solution, giving the surface a brighter, cleaner finish.
00:33Then, thin metal wires are shaped into intricate patterns and carefully attached to the surface before being fixed in place
00:42with heat.
00:43The teapot is cleaned, painted, and fired at around 760 degrees Celsius.
00:49Once cooled, the main handle and lid are finally assembled.
00:53The final result is a blue teapot with a beautiful flower pattern.
