In Chinese mythology, the dragon is a symbol of great power and transformation. One of the most enchanting tales involves a koi fish that gradually transforms into a dragon, resulting in a hybrid creature with the head of a dragon and the tail of a fish. This mythical being, known as the "Yu Hua Long," which literally means "fish-turned-dragon," serves as the inspiration for a pair of exquisite purple clay teapots. Each teapot features an intricately designed lid that depicts a dragon that extends its tongue with each pour of tea, adding a touch of magical realism to the tea-drinking experience.
