Artist Name:Dong Yafang
Artist Title:The inheritor of Yixing purple clay pottery production skills, a municipal intangible cultural heritage site
Introduction:Due to its excellent insulation and breathability, purple clay teapots are known as the "the foremost leading tea set" in China, with a history of about 1000 years. 
This teapot is based on the classic design of Chinese purple clay teapot master Gu Jingzhou, and the lifting beam inherits elements such as the arch and eaves of ancient Chinese pavilions, perfectly integrating traditional architectural aesthetics with purple clay craftsmanship. 
The pot shape and button are ingeniously designed in the shape of the Chinese character "hundred", on the one hand, to commemorate the centenary of the birth of Master Gu Jingzhou. On the other hand, it symbolizes "a thousand fortunes and a hundred blessings", "a hundred lifetimes of fragrance", and a beautiful expectation for  "drinking 100 types of tea" .
