Autumn Moon Collectors' Cup
Autumn Moon Collectors' Cup
Crafted By Lin Xi
This stunning silvery cup is the result of years of research and experimentation by award-winning master potter Lin Xi. The rippling cascading patterns form under the high heat of Lin Xi’s kiln firing a glaze that Lin Xi personally sourced and blended from an original Shui Ji mineral deposit used in the Song Dynasty. The deep and mesmerizing patterns reflect the formation of iron oxides under the heat of the kiln, not an effect that is painted on. A variation of Lin Xi’s silver moon style, these rare cups have a pooling and heat effect to create the impression of a lunar eclipse with light shining around it. Each cup and patterning is unique. Each was fully hand-thrown and fired in tiny batches dependent on the whims of weather and kiln heat patterns to achieve the desired effect. This larger format cup is a true collectors piece, with Lin Xi’s one-man studio only able to produce very few cups that meet his exacting standards of perfection.
