She had chosen the rarer Red Jiang Po Ni for this Bian Chen work.

She also had inscription of the poem as well by Craftsman Yu Ren 渔人:

清心

一饮涤昏寐 情来朗爽满天地 

喝了第一杯茶以后，洗涤去我的昏寐，神清气爽，思绪飞扬天地之间

After drinking the first cup of tea, my sleepiness is washed away, I feel refreshed and my thoughts are fleeting and flying between heaven and earth.

After drinking the second cup, my spirit and mind were cleansed, like the sudden rain washing away the dust in the air.

再饮清我神 忽如飞雨洒轻尘

喝了第二杯之后，清洁我的精神和思想，像忽然降落的飞雨洗净空气中的灰尘

After drinking the second cup of tea, my spirit and my mind are cleansed, just like the rain washing away all the dust.

Also to be cherished and witnessed in this ZiSha Work, you observe: 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 Wan.  During the making of FHM ZiSha pots, the Craftladies and 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.
