Purple clay pot culture

One of the most important factors for the origin, development and fame of purple clay pot art in Yixing is its unique high quality and famous purple clay. There are many purple sand producing areas. Why is the purple sand pot in Yixing so famous? It is not only exquisite craftsmanship, masters come forth in large numbers, the real reason is that the purple sand produced in Yixing has excellent texture, high iron content, good water absorption rate and exhaust rate after firing, and is used to make tea with excellent color, fragrance and taste. Therefore, to judge whether it is a good pot, the first criterion is to look at the clay, whether it is authentic Yixing purple ore.

The beautiful town of Yixing bears the dream of pot makers, that is, life and love. It's not so much making pots as inheriting a craft...

Thanks to nature's gift, with her holes created human wealth, China is proud of purple sand, Yixing proud of you.

In his backyard, the old house was filled with purple sand ores that he had bought. After being selected, they were piled here in the open air to weather. Over time, weeds grew on them.

When it comes to purple clay pots, I have to mention Master Gu Jingzhou, my mother-in-law's instructor. In the auction record of purple clay pots, there are 9 purple clay pots in the top 10 auction prices, which are works of Master Gu Jingzhou. Among them, the transaction price of the "Squirrel Grape Ten-piece Set Tea Set" ranked first was as high as 92 million yuan.

This high purple sand price makes many teapot friends who like purple sand pots discouraged. However, in recent years, the purple sand market has become increasingly standardized under the government management, and the price of purple sand has also had a relatively detailed price system. I hope you choose my purple sand works, not only because of business, but also because you don't like the mixed purple sand market.
