Crafted By Lai Xiaohong
This stunning Duan Ni teapot is part of Lai Xiaohong’s award-winning masterwork series combining the strength and elegance of classic form seamlessly with natural detail. The craft and time required to form a pot that transitions so perfectly between stark and clean abstraction to elegant touches of bamboo tests Lai Xiaohong’s skill and demands many dozens more hours of work to execute with her level of effortlessness.
Jing Song or “Sturdy Pine” captures the strength of an ancient pine tree as it twists and reaches upwards, Knots and burls tell a story of the tree’s life, while the underside reveals sculpting lines that all come to a centerpoint like the rings of a tree. Delicate moss clings to the side of the pine tree body, a testament to its strength and shelter. The whole pot comes together to give a sense of time, history and strength fitting as tribute to a great old pine tree.
