He Qing shook his head and said: "You're welcome, it's just a little effort."

"Brother Qing, when did this purple clay pot come from? Qing Dynasty? Ming Dynasty? Or some other time?" Lin Haitao asked later.

He Qing replied: "It's from the Ming Dynasty, very old. This kind of thing is not common, and it is difficult to see it at auction, so there is no specific transaction record. The price can be high or low. It all depends on the auction situation. Mine

The valuation is the one just mentioned.”

"From the Ming Dynasty? So old?!" Lin Haitao said in surprise, "Then was it made by a famous master?"

Purple clay teapots are actually not expensive. New products on the market now generally cost about one hundred yuan each. However, if they are works by famous artists, they are difficult to estimate. The auction prices of purple clay teapots made by top masters have exceeded tens of millions.

Very amazing.

He Qing said: "It is a 'spring pot' and was made by a famous master in the Ming Dynasty. Master Ding, you should have heard of the 'spring pot', right?"

Master Ding nodded and said, "Yes, I have heard of it, but I haven't done any research. I have only seen modern imitations, but never the genuine 'Spring Pot'."

He Qingyuan said: "It is indeed rare. The spring pot is a tree gall pot, which is a special purple clay pot. The spring pot was made in Zhengde of the Ming Dynasty. During the Jiajing period, Jiangsu and Suyi, famous artists made spring pots.

The pot he made. It is said that his surname was Gong and his given name was Chun. Gongchun was the scholar of an official. When Gongchun accompanied his master to study at Jinsha Temple in Yixing, an old monk in the temple was very good at making purple clay pots, so Gongchun secretly learned it.

Later, he used the clay that the old monk had washed his hands and settled at the bottom of the vat to make a pot in the shape of the galls of the big ginkgo tree next to the Jinsha Temple, which is also the shape of the tree galls, and carved the patterns on the galls. After firing,

This pot is very simple and cute, so this kind of purple clay pot that imitates the natural form suddenly became famous, and people called it a spring pot. Teacher Liang's 'spring pot' can be said to be a top-notch one!" (To be completed.)
