Crafted By Chen Zongbao
This stunning masterwork from Chen Zongbao perfectly integrates the abstract classical teapot form with natural elements through masterful sculpture- with a handle, spout and lid that evoke weathered rocks and driftwood.
These weathered objects are a reference to the scholar’s studio, a pavilion set in a tea garden full of objects with striking natural forms as points of inspiration for poetry. The scholar’s studio is brought further into focus through gold highlights, like artifacts of brushwork, a fitting tribute to gongfu tea, a ceremony that exists in the space between the natural and the abstract.
This pot is crafted from a unique clay - an old deposit Di Cao Qing that was roasted as a raw ore to darken the minerals before being mixed as a clay- a dark and beautiful contrast to the gold, ready to take on a beautiful luster over years of brewing.
