Precautions for the purchase of purple clay pots:
The purple sand pot made of real purple sand mud is like bean paste, no matter how fine the purple sand looks like it is still semi-suspended and grainy, it will not be too smooth to the touch, but it will not be scratchy. The purple sand-like clay feels astringent to the touch, while the one mixed with chemical raw materials is too smooth. The distribution of mud sand particles without sand adjustment is uneven, which is relatively natural and harmonious; The sand grains of the sand and mud are rigidly "floating" on the surface of the pot, and the distribution is evenly distributed and there is a sense of artificial manipulation.
Purple sand is different from porcelain, without special glazing, after sintering, the surface will naturally form a "mud door" slurry skin with a sense of adhesion, which is not leaky but breathable, and the sound conduction is not as crisp as Bi Xiao's porcelain, but it is not stuffy, and the sound of purple sand clay is muffled.
After listening to the sound of water absorption in the pot, quickly pour out the boiling water, smell whether there is a pungent odor in the pot, if there is, it may be that the materials are not good, there are problems, and there are generally the following reasons for this situation: the materials are not good; There are chemical additives; The kiln fire is insufficient, which is easy to understand. It is normal for a real purple clay pot to have no flavor or kiln fire smell or only earthy smell.
