Analysing the reflux phenomenon of craft teapot

Nowadays, the return of teapots in the ceramic arts and crafts market is becoming more and more common. On the one hand, the authors of Zisha originally intended to buy their own purple sand works. On the other hand, Zishahu, which was once sold to Hong Kong and Taiwan, has returned to the mainland.

1. The purple sand author also collects the teapot It is reported that Yixing, which has always been the center for the creation and sale of purple sand, has recently become the main force for purchasing purple teapot. Zhu Qiangcheng, an expert who has been managing Zisha for many years, revealed that many returning teapots can sell at a good price in Yixing. Including the old teapot and Yixing teapot masters from the 1980s to the 1990s: "The famous teapot"

According to Mao Guoqiang, a ceramic expert, the reason for recycling is that most craftsmen have left the market more than a decade or two ago. The authors usually do not leave products for themselves as commemorative items; followed by the development of purple clay artists to a certain extent, Looking back, I summarized the development of my skills. He believes that for collectors, it is necessary to have a deep understanding and summary of the history of purple sand.

Mao Guoqiang also suggested that the good teapots have the same place. First, small pots must have atmosphericity. Second, the process is complete and refined. Third, attention is paid to the details. For example, the pot must have chapters and funds to show the culture of the author.

In addition, he believes that although value is one of the criteria for collecting, but collectors do not deliberately consider the potential for appreciation, but to understand the teapot and what is a good purple sand art: "As long as it is a good pot, you can certainly win Time and market test."

2. The purple sand is returned to the mainland and sold to the Hong Kong and Taiwan regions. The Zishahu that has returned to the Mainland is now called the “return kettle”. "Refluxer" is the result of uneven development of the art market. In the 1980s, Taiwanese collectors purchased a large number of teapots in the Mainland, resulting in a sharp increase in the price of teapots. After the Asian financial crisis, many investors in purple sand were locked in, and the Hong Kong-Taiwan purple sand market entered the frozen period. In recent years, with the surging tide of teapot collections, these once-exclusive boutiques have gradually returned to the mainland. The industry calls it a "return kettle."

Li Ming, the founder of Zhishou Zisha Fine Arts Museum, told reporters that the teapots that he took out for the special auction were mostly “return pots”, all of which he bought from Taiwanese and Hong Kong people over the years. , Each piece is worthy of the highest quality, including Shao Luyu's "Golden Lotus Seed Pot", Yan Shimin's "Shucha Sanyou Pot", Zhu Kexin's Ryukyu Pot, Gu Jingzhou's Raincast Open Star Pot, and He Daohong's Plum Blossom Pot.

The person in charge of the auction said that in recent years, the purple sand market has gradually warmed up, and the value of “return pot” of the purple sand has been highlighted. The main reason is that the rapid economic development in China and the continuous improvement of people’s living standards have created good economic conditions for investment and collection of artworks. . Followed by the growing trend of social tea tasting, this has also led to and promoted the development of the purple sand culture to a certain extent. And after many years of adjustment, the purple sand market has gradually begun to emerge from the trough, gradually becoming more rational.
