Shen Ming and Gao Bo are worthy of being the top art critics in the industry. They have first-class eyesight. The moment they saw the tea set, they immediately discovered that this set of tea sets was unique.

The main shape of the teapot is really special.

The shape of the pot is composed of two parabolas, one is the corner from the mouth to the bottom, and the other is the corner from the center to the bottom. The shape looks concise, simple, generous, dignified and steady.

The lid of the pot has a button, which looks like a half ring, like a bridge.

The spout is straight, from the mouth to the body of the pot, gradually thickening, just like a feeling that comes from the body of the pot.

The three-legged feet at the bottom of the pot are called Go feet, shaped like Go pieces. When placed on the table, it is like a three-legged tripod standing, showing the solemn and extraordinary temperament of a pot.

Of course, the most important thing is that there are words on the pot.

The elegant calligraphy is engraved on the pot, with very clear handwriting and a style of engraving of gold and stone.

"Three thousand weak water, only one scoop!"

Shen Ming glanced at it and smiled and said, "This pot is interesting."

On the opposite side of him, what Gao Bo saw was another scene. The other side of the pot body was not a character but a picture. It was a very simple picture of waterfalls, with rugged rocks and gurgling water, which was very interesting.

Whether it is the shape of the pot, the characters of the pot body, or the pictures, or even the details on the shoulders of the pot handle are very novel for Shen Ming and Gao Bo, and they have never seen them before.

In an instant, Gao Bo looked up and asked, "Are you studying this during this period?"

So, smart people are smart people, and they can be transparent at a glance.

Bai Ye smiled and held a pot of tea.

The warm tea soup flowed out of the spout, but the stop was clean and neat, without any drag.

Tea is seven points.

Bai Ye put down the pot and smiled and said, "Please, everyone!"

The tea is slightly fragrant and the breath is strong.

However, at this time, the attention of several art critics was basically on the teapot and no one went to drink tea.

As critics, they are very sensitive to art touch. When the shape and details of the teapot come into view, someone has realized that a new art form may be born.

After all, the pot in front of them is so in line with their aesthetic taste.

The pyramid-like structure has a full and plump ampull. In addition to the characters and paintings, it exudes a strong elegant atmosphere and has the ancient and clumsy charm of metal and stone. It is simply a toy tailor-made for literati and famous people.

In an instant, several people had a strong urge to play.

But they are scheming after all, and they are still a little reserved and are still waiting and watching.

"What kind of pot is this?" Gao Bo asked.

He also noticed that the pot body was slightly red and the texture was quite strange.

This shows that the materials used to make pots should be unusual.

"Clay pot, purple sand mud."

Bai Ye explained: "There is a kind of clay specialty in Xishan, which is rare in other places. The most important thing is that after the fire of this purple sand mud, it will have a luster like gold and stone, and it will sound like gold and stone when it hits..."

While speaking, he reached out to knock.

"Don't move."

In an instant, Shen Ming hurriedly blocked and glared: "Young man, don't be so frivolous, speak well, don't touch your hands, we will verify it ourselves."

"Well."

Bai Ye smiled, "Okay, please be happy."

Anyway, several critics have taken the bait, and his purpose has been achieved.

At the same time, Shen Ming asked, "Old Gao, are you coming or me?"

"I'll do it." Gao Bo was very excited.

Shen Ming was speechless: "You are so polite..."

"This is not the time to be humble and give in." Gao Bo smiled, stretched out his hands directly, carefully held the handle of the pot with one hand, held the bottom of the pot repeatedly, and picked up the teapot.

At this time, he could feel the charm of this pot more clearly.

The spout and handle are in a symmetrical structure, and the lines of the body of the pot are even smoother. He reached out and touched the belly of the pot before the body of the pot was infused with boiling water, but he couldn't feel the heat.

Gao Bo was slightly surprised and couldn't help lifting the lid of the pot.

A bunch of hot air rose like fog.

The fragrance of tea enters the nose.

Gao Bo sniffed lightly and couldn't help but say, "Baiye, have you added heat-insulating ingredients to the clay?"

“Absolutely not.”

Bai Ye immediately said: "The purple clay teapot has too many advantages, and it is not hot to insulated. It is also one of them. There are other benefits, so I won't list them one by one, for fear that I will not finish it in a short time."

"Oh!"

Gao Bo refused to comment.

He continued to observe the teapot. There was a pattern on the shoulder of the pot, which was a common pattern recognition seal in calligraphy and painting. His fingertips touched the word "white leaves" and asked again: "So, did you make this pot?"

Bai Ye said according to the truth: "No, it was the shape I designed. I would like to ask the craftsman who is skilled in the pot to make it together."

"That's right." Gao Bo nodded with satisfaction.

If Bai Ye still knows how to make pots, he is the first to doubt it.

At the same time, Bai Ye added: "Not only the design, but also the engravings of the pot, the paintings, and the patterns. I personally do these..."

Gao Bo remained silent, but a look of surprise flashed through his eyes.

Don’t think that this matter is simple. It’s just imitating the form of calligraphy and painting and using the routines of calligraphy and painting directly on the pot.

Calligraphy and painting emphasize the integration of poetry, calligraphy, seal and painting. The problem is that this integration process has been accumulated over a long period of time and generations of people to finally form a fixed pattern.

Did the ancients all fools and couldn’t they get it right in one step?

After all, it was still a matter of consciousness. At the beginning, everyone did not have such consciousness. When someone broke the window paper, everyone suddenly realized that it was possible.

The same is true for purple clay teapots.

In the original time and space, purple clay teapots were created in the mid-Ming Dynasty and soon became popular among literati and gradually became popular. However, it was not until the early Qing Dynasty that famous purple clay teapots were created to engrave poetry inscriptions on the pot body, and signed the inscriptions to use inscribed and seals.

From creation, then to development, to maturity, then innovation...

This is a gradual process.

Now Bai Ye, he directly omitted all these processes and completely showed the unique charm of the purple clay teapot to everyone without reservation. How could it not be surprising?

This is why, whether it was Chen Daqi, Xiao Luo, or Yu Chi, after visiting the workshop, he directly participated in it without any hesitation.

Because they know the charm of purple clay teapots, and also know that at this stage of creation, there is room for them to play. Anyway, during this period, these people are thinking, researching, and designing the most perfect and artistic shapes in their minds.

The white leaves are happy to see their success.

"So this is the name of the pot?"

Gao Bo studied for a moment, pointed at the side of the weak water Sanqian, and drank only one scoop, there was a carved style there.

The character "大" is date, and two characters, "大" is Shipiao.

Stone pot.

Bai Ye smiled and said, "That's right, there are so many changes in the pot, and the first thing I want is the stone scoop."
Chapter completed!
