ooooo - I smell....road trip! Thanks for the great pics and the great insight and info!! I plan on buying a new pot, but not for about another 6 months, but this helps me understand what I am looking at a bit more. I have to say, all those pots in the display cases have really gotten me thinking...

thank you like our teapot

Sorry but could you explain what half hand made means? Thanks!

Meaning hand-made but with the use of a mold / form to help shape the pot.

Shouzhen Duoqiuhu is one of my favorite potter and pattern of all time.

It's so wonderful to see someone of great heritage and history.

Hope to see you more around and enlighten us with greatness of Yixing

Argh..how didn't I come to Teachat eariler..

In hopes of greeting and seeing her more around


DuoQiu means 3 balls are speared in a row.

Often 3 kinds are mentioned,

First is Daoguang period's Shao Da Heng's


Second is our great Cheng Shou Zhen's


Third is Yu Guo Liang's (can't find the picture)

I always wondered about the clay of ShouZhen DuoQiu (Yixing Zisha Gongyi Chang's). Acclaimed book 中国紫砂茗壶珍赏's Han Qi Lou mentioned, it's made of Tian Qing ni. But the look of it somewhat differs from ZhuGan (pig's liver) color of Tian Qing ni, rather alike of Qing Hui ni.

Is it Tiaosha or have you heard anything from your father? [/img]

Yeah..I heard that too.

That Cheng ShouZhen often used WuHui (reduction method)

You really sound like one of his family
