Introduction:The artist is known as the "Pumpkin Prince" for his expertise in making pumpkin shaped purple clay pots.
The work is made of purple clay, and the purple clay pot is known as the "the foremost leading tea set" in China due to its good insulation and breathability.
The pot body is shaped like a pumpkin, which symbolizes harvest and abundance as a crop full of pastoral atmosphere.
The work uses Duan Ni (a type of clay used in purple clay teapots) as the base, decorated with green clay powder. The handle is made of vines, and the leaves are used as the mouth. The body of the teapot is even decorated with the natural texture of the pumpkin surface, as well as vine leaves, stickers, and ladybugs, just like a ripe and cute pumpkin, allowing people to feel a warmth and tranquility from the countryside even in their busy lives.
