- The original ore clay is good, the glaze layer is rich, and the moist and delicate texture seems to retain the temperature of hand-made. The struggle between ceramics and glaze forms natural ice cracks. After being nourished by tea, the cracks present irregular, Zen-like cracks, which are beautiful and durable.
- Chinese art is not just for viewing, it can also be integrated into life and add color to daily life. When it encounters a graceful figure, dyes it on soft silk, paints it on the white wall of a cup... it becomes a piece of exquisite art.
- That shade of green is not a single color, but contains multiple gradients of dark blue, spiral blue and blue. In the interweaving of underglaze and overglaze colors, it presents a hazy beauty like the mountains shrouded in mist; and the blue, from light to dark, is like the first bloom of spring tea, full of vitality. As the tea smoke curls around, green and blue interweave to create images of misty mountains and rivers. It feels as if you are in a Song Dynasty painting, forgetting the hustle and bustle of the world.
- Li, originated from ancient eastern countries, a kind of braided hat for shade and rain. In the "Book of Songs", there is the sentence "He Weihe Li". It can still be seen everywhere in mountain villages and water towns. For example, when a tea girl picks tea, she wears a hat on her head and a bamboo basket tied to her waist to cover the sun and the rain. The breeze occasionally blows and she takes off the hat. At that moment, she seems to have the whole nature.
- When I first saw the Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains on the Stoneware Hat Cups, I felt like I had seen a thousand years. The hand-painted pattern around the green waist seemed to shrink the mountains and rivers described by Wang Ximeng into an inch and reflect them on the top of the bamboo hat. The cup is classical and elegant, with a curved edge like a crescent moon and a flat and broad sole like a river bank. When you stroke it with your fingertips, you can feel the glaze as delicate as silk, revealing the craftsman's ingenuity as fine as a hair.
- A closer look at the Stoneware Hat Cups reveals its exquisiteness. The overglaze pastel technique requires the craftsman to master the temperature to a fine degree in order to achieve this translucent but not glaring, warm, and subtle luster.
- The favorite is the straw hat. The Stoneware Hat Cups, the straw bowl or the straw cup are all called it. When we hold the made hat cup for others to admire, some people say that the mouth of the hat cup is big and small, so it is not easy to handle and easy to fall. But I want to tell him that this is just a visually beautiful misunderstanding! When we drink tea, our hearts are calm and stable, and we should not be easy to pour with a cup. Drinking tea is a joy, of course, we must use our favorite pots and cups to brew, taste, or receive three or five friends. .
- Every stroke of the river and every touch of cloud in the painting of the Stoneware Hat Cups embodies the craftsman's profound understanding of classical aesthetics and the exquisite presentation of contemporary craftsmanship. The shape of the cup itself implies the Chinese philosophy of the round earth and square sky, and it echoes the mountains and rivers in the picture, forming a harmonious picture of movement and stillness, ancient and modern.
- When the tea soup is poured in, the green color flows in the light and shadow, as if you can hear the singing of Wang Ximeng's brushstrokes and see the inheritance of Yilintang craftsmen's fingertips. This is not just an Antique Hand-Painted Tea Cup Jingdezhen Tea Set, but also a cultural dialogue across time and space, telling the rebirth of classical aesthetics in modern life.
