原产福建窑口,与龙成对

第一次见到这只凤凰的原型时,是在福建德化郊区一处庭院作坊中——德化以白瓷闻名,但这家族院落的一角,三代以来都保留给 zhuni 吐水器。师傅是一位年约六十的寡言男子,他刚完成一条龙,正用同一把窄刃竹刀在雕刻凤凰的鸟喙。他解释,这对本该彼此配搭:龙在茶盘一侧,凤凰在另一侧,它们的咕噜声会为你泡茶的时光奏出一小段二重奏。

我们花了一下午测试烧成曲线,因为 zhuni 性情难驯。温度太高,陶土就会失去那令它歌唱的微孔隙——水滑落时无声无息。太低则形象沉默,喉部被未熔合的颗粒堵塞。我们最终定调的一批,在最后冲刺阶段达到 1080 °C,刚好让陶土成熟却又能保持喉部通畅。每一件都是手工捏塑,非铸模成型,所以鸟喙角度与内部储水腔各有差异——这也正是每只凤凰会以自己的节奏发出咕噜声的原因。

我带回了一打,而这一件——编号 FZW‑014——格外吸引我的目光,因为烧成后的辰砂色深浓到近乎漆红,翅膀羽毛上还残留窑灰落定后的一抹淡彩虹光。随着每一次浇淋,zhuni 会沿着水流路径愈发深邃,这件作品只会越用越美。

The leaf, brewed

The water’s voice when the phoenix gargles

dry leaf

Unfired zhuni clay bears a smooth, dense surface with a faint, clean earthiness — no glaze, only the natural blush of iron‑rich cinnabar.

wet leaf

Hot water darkens the clay by half a tone, releasing a whisper of petrichor and the sweet‑mineral scent of shallow Yixing ore.

liquor

Droplets escaping the beak catch the light like glass, cool and clear, carrying just a trace of the clay’s mineral breath.

aroma

Warm stone, sun‑baked riverbank, a faint note of roasted chestnut that recalls the zhuni’s high‑fire mellowing.

taste

The water acquires a soft, fleeting mineral note — chalk and spring stone — without ever masking the tea it accompanies.

finish

A clean, cool finish with a back‑palate hum of hard water and a gentle returning sweetness that lingers quietly.

Brewing

A method, not a recipe.

Method
gongfu
Ratio
n/a — pour directly over the figurine
Water temp
95–100
First infusion
5–10 (pour slowly to hear the gargle)
Subsequent
Repeat with each infusion; the phoenix sputters reliably for 3–4 pours before the water warms it fully.

首次使用前先以滚水浇淋凤凰,打开陶土气孔——然后让它在茶盘上自然冷却。
