Shi Piao 石瓢 (Jing Zhou Shi Piao 景舟石瓢), 250.3ml, Xiao Mei Yao Zhu Ni 小煤窑朱泥, by our Collaborative Craftsman Wang Xing 王兴。

The lines and detailing speak of Craftsman Wang Xing's EXTREME CARE AND TIME taken to craft each part, each pot.  Hold one, hold up one, swing the work around.  Carefully examine his Fully-Handmade work.  Look at it from afar, from near, and it will grow on you, with fine detailing with MUCH THOUGHT on each part, with MUCH TIME spent on every part, section.  Because this is what Fully-Handmade ZiSha Art should be, and HOW FULLY-HANDMADE ZISHA ART is so different from and light years ahead of the ubiquitous jigger-machined pots and half-handmade pots masquerading under the sales tagline of "fully-handmade zisha" pots.  These latter JM/HHM pots are made in what we call 流水线 a.k.a. 'Factory-Line operation' whereby the main pot body after being jigger-machined or coming off from the mould, is passed to the next worker who fits on the spout, and subsequently this second worker will pass the pot on to another worker who will in turn fit on the handle.  Continuing so, the pressed lid is likewise passed to another worker who fit on the lid knob.  EACH WORKER has NO IDEA what the other one is doing, and they are always working on fixed time lines stated by the boss.  For example, the worker being "passed the baton" a pot with the spout just fixed onto the body by his colleague, will only focus on fixing on the handle, with nil to little regard to WHETHER THE HANDLE fixed on will be cohesive with the spout.  Each worker has NO idea of HOW THE FINAL POT WILL LOOK LIKE.  Beyond poor craftsmanship and clay, the result of such processes are ugly pots with poor cohesiveness which experienced Artists, Craftsmen and collectors will tell from a metre away.  Experienced people in us, do not need to pick up a pot to check whether it is fully-handmade or made of zisha, we can tell from a metre away just by looking at the pot.

The keywords are: Detailing and Cohesiveness.

A GOOD Fully-Handmade ZiSha Work combines great detailing and cohesiveness.

Also to be cherished and witnessed in this ZiSha Work, you : besides the usual important, critical and beautiful hallmarks of a Fully-Handmade ZiSha pot, this pot has the discontinuous and roughly horizontal marks evident on the inner walls, and these are called the: 泥凳纹 Ni Deng Wen, which are the marks left on the clay slab, complementary to the marks on the workbench of the Craftsman Zhang Wang Xing; During the making of FHM ZiSha pots, the Craftsmen will be using tools to cut the clay slabs, etc, and these cutting strokes will leave marks on the studio workbench.  Especially the first major forceful cut across the table to delineate the clay she/he wants to utilize to form the main body of the body.  Thus when the craftsman subsequently pound the clay slab on the workbench, these marks will be etched onto the clay slab.  Thus you are "enjoying" the additional natural hallmarks of a Fully-Handmade pot.  Even a partially handmade pot will not show these marks.  And those fake, those Jigger-machined pots may show CONCENTRIC continuous circular lines, usually all parallel to one another, and extremely uniform.
Therefore, do cherish and have fun admiring the discontinuous, jagged lines on your pot's inner walls, are called, the 泥凳纹 Ni Deng Wen "Workbench Lines/Marks".

(Dear Friends, during the photo-taking process, five to six separate spotlights above and around, are used.  Looking at the photos, the collar-rim of the lid-body interface thus shows the various spotlights' reflection.  You will therefore see 2 to 3 scattered brighter spots around the collar-rim.  Some friends had asked before, "is the rim-collar having any irregularity in circularity?".  Thus, rest assured.  Do not misconstrue the two to three brighter spots around the lid-body rim collar to mean any irregularity in circularity of the rim-collar.
Yes, the rim-collars of all these ZiSha works crafted by our Craftsmen ARE REGULAR in CIRCULARITY :-D, and you can rest assured.  Thank you Friends.)
