The pot holder is a low-key but indispensable part of the tea banquet. It works with the tea brewing utensil, which not only adds to the coordinated beauty of the tea banquet, but also keeps the tea making process fresh and clean.
Today Tongxinshe Tea House brings such a "Alum Red Landscape Hu Cheng"
This teapot is produced by "You Yun Shan fang" studio in Jingdezhen. Dimensions: length: 17.5cm, width 13cm, height 7.5cm. This teapot is not sloppy in terms of materials. It uses raw mine kaolin, and its soil quality White and delicate, with good plasticity, fire resistance and other physical and chemical properties, it is the preferred material for making porcelain. In order to highlight the retro feel, old mud is specially added to make the bottom tire gray, thus highlighting its simple and ancient temperament. After firing, the carcass glows with a grayish-yellow halo, and there are faintly visible fine sand grains, which is full of ancient charm.
This pot holder creatively uses alum red hand-painted method to show the landscape scenery. The red rime and clouds are matched with the "old" background color, which has a unique flavor. The landscape uses a light crimson technique, borrowing the concept of Chinese painting. The outline is drawn with ink and rubbed to make it suitable in shades, elegant and plain. The glaze is thick and the antique glaze color is subtle. It is combined with the painted landscape and has a gentle and ancient meaning.
A ceramic lid is placed on top, and in the middle of the lid is a hollow ancient coin design, which not only symbolizes peace, but also makes the pot holder have an ancient meaning. The pot holder is hollow in design and has a slightly concave arc in the middle of the upper surface, which allows water spilled during the brewing process to flow into the kettle holder through the coin hole in the center of the surface. It is convenient to store water and will not stain the tea mat.
The copper cover material has a low-key feel and is not easy to rust or fade when exposed to water. After tea is finished, rinse it with clean water and simply wipe it, it will be as clean as new. It can also be used as a dry soaking table, and the storage compartment can store a small amount. Tea is provided for pouring and raising the pot, while the tea banquet is always kept simple.
