Why can the purple clay pot become the first tea set?

White as jade, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, sound like a lot" is a high praise for Chinese porcelain.

Yixing purple clay pot is a clay handicraft, but it has functional characteristics that other pottery does not have.

Because there are many essential differences between purple clay pots and porcelain:

First, from the point of view of the mud made, it is all "soil", and the mineral composition of the mud of the Yixing purple clay pot belongsIron-rich clay, quartz, mica typesPorcelain is a kind of aggregate composed of minerals such as quartz, sericite, kaolin, feldspar, etc., and its minerals contain more glass, so the shrinkage of purple sand mud is good and the plasticity is higher than that of porcelain.

Second, the purple clay potIt has a unique pore structureIt not only has good air permeability, but also can contain the fragrance of tea, so the purple clay pot is still antique, and there is no need to glaze it, so that the advantages of the purple clay pot are not comparable to other ceramic products. Porcelain must need to be glazed, and its air permeability is certainly not as good as that of purple clay pots.

Third, the purple clay potIt is incompletely sintered, and porcelain is generally completely sintered, so the hardness of the purple clay pot is not as good as porcelain, listen to the sound of the two can understand, the sound of the purple clay pot is muffled, and the porcelain is crisp and pleasant.

This is why the purple clay pot is loved by people and is very suitable for playing, its clay is delicate, caressing it like a baby's skin, which makes people love and pity. After playing for a long time, it will emit a unique luster that is not found in porcelain.

Fourth, in addition to comparison, we can compare the magnanimity of the twoThe porcelain is noble and elegant, graceful and luxurious, but intelligent and exposed; The purple clay pot unanimously adheres to the plain face and plain heart, completely dedicating its most characteristic functions to people, he is calm and introverted, wise and foolish.

Yixing purple clay pot with its simple, friendly attitude with people, not only literati and scholars love it, now more people love more and more purple clay pot, and has become the new favorite of today's collection circle.

Purple sand is a kind of ceramic products between pottery and porcelain, purple sand ware does not hang glaze, but makes full use of the natural color of the mud, the color is warm and moist after firing, quaint and lovely, the purple sand ware surface also has a matte effect, which can not only weaken the reflection of light energy, but also can clearly express the vivid effect of the form, decoration and its own natural color. The texture of purple sand pottery is simple and pure, not flattering or vulgar, and the temperament of the literati is very similar, so that the literati love to be good, to the blank as paper, or to write pot inscriptions, or to write books, or to engrave flowers, engraved with seals, to support the meaning, every time you see ingenuity.

The purple clay pot is a tea vessel that is "the first tea set in the world", and its content and form have reached a relative unity, the content is suitable, the touch is comfortable, the shape is perfect, and the beauty is generous. Generally speaking, to make black tea, it is advisable to use a darker pot, and to make green tea, it is advisable to use a lighter pot. In the spare time, when the bottom of the throat is sweet, eliminate fatigue and troubles, and appreciate the artistic conception of the wind of the Jin and Tang Dynasties, the famous mountains and beautiful waters, and the flowers and birds.

In addition to the purple sand pot has always been loved by people, the purple sand flower pot is also favored by collectors for its use and ornamental value. During the Qing Dynasty, a new style of seal carving, calligraphy and painting decoration was created. The unique reddish-brown color of Yixing purple sand pottery flower pots gives people a solemn, quaint and simple feeling.

The purple sand flower pot has ideal moisture absorption and drainage performance, because the purple sand pot does not apply glaze on the surface and inside, the strength of the knot is tough, and there is a slight water absorption, so it has slow drainage, suitable for the growth of flowers and trees, and the potted flowers are matched, poetic and pleasant, both practical and ornamental.

Because the purple teapot is very difficult to make, the tea brewed is very sweet and very tasty.

That's because. The purple clay pot is the kind of vinegar tea, which is particularly delicious and will make its taste authentic, so many people are willing to use such a pot to make tea.

Of course not. The differences mainly include the following five aspects:Clay, modeling, molding process, payment, function

1. Mud

Generally, the mud used to make the purple sand cup is an outer mountain material, or it is simply the purple sand mud pretended to be clay, which does not have or destroys the structure of the purple sand double pores.

Most of the mud used in making purple sand pots are raw ore materials, or raw ore mud sand blending to make oak simple, with the double pore structure of purple sand, good air permeability, and there will be luster changes after tea nourishment.

2. Modeling

The difference between the shape of the purple sand cup and the purple clay pot is simply the difference between cloud and mud.

No matter how the former turns over the flower head, its shape can't get out of this circle, and the one who can use his brain can also be decorated, which is inevitably noisy. The shape of the purple clay pot is much more varied, and there are a variety of decorative techniques such as seal carving and appliqué, and the cultural significance behind it is also more profound.

3. Molding process

The purple sand cup is mostly molded by locomotive or grouting, and does not need or rarely uses hand to make. It is not excluded that the handmade purple sand cup, but the purple sand cup of this production mode cannot meet the needs of mass production.

The purple clay pot can not be made in batches with the help of a machine, even if it is a semi-manual pot, it is only formed with the help of molds, and the subsequent details such as bright needles still need to spend a lot of time and energy to complete.

The purple sand pot made by locomotive or grout is not discussed because it has lost its mud characteristics, or it is not authentic purple sand mud at all.

4. Payment

Most of the purple sand cups are not signed, and there is also a bottom seal printed with "China Yixing", which does not have copyright protection beam base pants. The purple clay pot is mostly signed in the name of the maker, and some cooperation models will have two or three authors' bottom money, and you can also use modern digital means to trace the source, and the copyright protection is stronger.

5. Function

The purple sand cup can only be drunk by one person, and there is no social nature of sharing, while the purple sand pot is different, the same pot of tea can be shared with multiple guests to drink, promote communication and interaction, and narrow the distance between people.

Of course it matters.

The purple clay pot has a particularly good effect on making tea!

Teapots are born from tea, and different utensils should be paired with different tea leaves. The purple clay pot tea is famous for its clear color and pure fragrance.

Drinking tea in a purple clay pot, due to its slow heat transfer characteristics, can have a thermal insulation effect on the tea soup in the pot, even if it is hot water, there is no hot feeling when used. In addition, because of its good air permeability, the tea brewed in the purple clay pot is not easy to deteriorate.

There is an even more reason why people can't put down the purple clay pot, which is the characteristics of the purple clay pot that complements the tea leaves when making tea. Using a purple clay pot to make tea will never have the taste of boiling pot water, and the tea aroma is rich and lasting. The purple sand particles and rough inner wall can effectively retain the aroma of tea, and after long-term use, there are more and more tea rusts on the inner wall, and the taste is particularly fragrant and strong when brewing tea soup.

The purple clay pot that has been used for a long time still has an attractive tea aroma even if boiling water is poured without putting tea leaves.

After absorbing the tea oil in the tea soup for a long time, the surface of the purple clay pot will become smooth and jade-like, which makes the owner love it more and more. The teapot is born because of the tea, and the tea nourishes the teapot. The two are like bosom friends in the mountains and rivers, and they have used each other's love to support each other for thousands of years.

Does the purple clay pot have anything to do with tea? Answer: The purple clay pot has nothing to do with tea, but with the water in which tea is made.

A really high-quality purple clay pot has the characteristics of good looks, and the reason why the purple clay pot can be loved by tea people is because it feels good.

1.A good purple clay pot is breathable and impermeable. When you put a new purple clay pot in boiling water, the surface of the pot will become brighter and the color of the pot will become darker, for example, the red will become redder and the purple sand will become purple.

This is the performance of an excellent purple clay pot. At present, it is found that most of the materials in Huanglong Mountain are the most obvious, and a small number of materials from other mountains also have this effect. This has a lot to do with purple sand mud.

A good purple sand mud material has heavier sandiness, more mica content and less clay content, which creates good air permeability for the purple clay pot.

2.The purple clay pot can absorb tea juice, and the inner wall of the pot is not brushed, so there is no peculiar smell when making tea. The purple clay pot is used for a long time, and the tea rust accumulates on the wall of the pot, so that the empty pot is injected with boiling water, and the tea flavor is strong, which has a certain relationship with the porosity of the purple sand pot, which is the unique quality of the purple clay pot.

In the cold winter and in December, boiling water is poured into the pot so that it does not swell and crack due to sudden changes in temperature. At the same time, the heat transfer rate of the sand is very slow, and it will not be very hot after brewing tea. In addition, it can be cooked and heated over a slow fire so that it does not crack due to the fire.

3.It is advisable to use a single raw ore without adding a purple clay pot. The color of a single raw ore purple clay pot is the same inside and outside.

If there are particles of different colors, check how well the particles are distributed and whether they are uniform and complete. At present, in order to create a grainy feeling and enhance the breathability in the market, smart merchants have created methods such as sand mixing, slurry washing, and adding maifan stones to practice mud. The purple clay pot has good air permeability.

It is not easy to change the taste of tea made with it, and it does not rot in the summer.

4.The purple clay pot has no fragrance and does not bring flavor. After the teapot was used for a long time.

Even if you pour boiling water in an empty pot, it will have the taste of tea. The taste of tea is not easy to mold. It has good heat resistance, boiling water will not fry cold in winter, and you can also use a heating stove to cook tea over a slow fire.

The purple clay pot has slow heat transfer and is not easy to burn. The longer the purple clay pot is used, the more beautiful the gloss on the surface of the pot becomes. There are many kinds of mud colors in the purple clay pot, which is very interesting.

The color is very positive, there are no flaws, the quality is very good, the feel is great, and the taste of drinking tea will be better. This is due to the relatively noble status of the purple clay pot, and these are also very cost-effective, **very expensive.

The characteristic is that it is particularly purple, and it also has a little luster, and it is also particularly slippery to the touch, because the purple clay pot is so beautiful, so many people like it.

It looks more classy, and it can release the aroma of tea, which has a unique charm, because the purple clay pot is made with excellent craftsmanship, which can make the fragrance of tea overflowing.

There are many types of tea, and for those who love tea, it is very particular to choose tea utensils. So how about the purple sand tea set? Let's take a look at the characteristics of the purple sand tea set.

1. How about the purple sand tea set.

The purple sand tea set is made of a porous material with a double pore structure, which has fine pores, high density and strong adsorption force. Use it to make tea, not only does not lose the color, aroma and taste of the tea, but also is not easy to mildew and spoilage, after using it for a long time, it is also fragrant to inject boiling water into the empty pot. In addition, the longer the purple clay pot is used, the brighter the color of the body of the pot will be.

Therefore, when buying a purple sand pot, all the polishing, waxing, polishing and polishing are mostly new pots, and the authentic purple sand tea set is clean and tidy, and it will be lustrous after a period of use, and only a purple sand pot will be made through dozens of processes.

Due to the good air permeability and high iron content of the purple sand tea set, the teapot lid is made tightly and seamed, the tea soup is not easy to deteriorate after a long time, and the aged tea is not rancid, and it is also beneficial to the human body. The purple clay pot is not glazed inside and out, and after using it for a long time, the tea juice penetrates, and the longer it is fragrant, even if it is poured into boiled water, the tea fragrance will be permeated. This pot also has the characteristics of adapting to the rapid change of cold and heat, does not crack or explode, does not heat quickly, and is easy to wash.

Second, the characteristics of purple sand tea sets.

1. The material of the purple sand tea set is purple sand mud, which is a raw material between pottery and porcelain, with excellent plasticity and ductility.

2. The spout of the purple sand tea set is small and has multiple porous structures, so the air permeability is very good and it is not easy to leak.

3. The pot-making skills of the purple sand tea set are exquisite, the spout and lid are tight, and there are very few gaps, which can reduce the flow of mold-containing air to the head of the pot, so that the original taste of the tea can be maintained for a long time. 4. The heat transfer of purple sand sand is slow, so it is not easy to burn when using purple sand tea sets, and the heat preservation is long-lasting. In addition, the purple sand tea set can be stewed over a warm fire.

5. The heat resistance of the purple sand tea set is very strong, even if the cold water is injected alternately, the tea set will not burst.

6. The tea brewed with purple sand tea set has a particularly strong tea aroma.

7. Make tea with purple sand tea set in summer, and the tea is not easy to become rancid.

8. The artistry of the purple sand tea set is very profound.

The teapot has a good flavor preservation function and can make tea without losing the original flavor; The old tea that has been brewed will not deteriorate, and the more you can't sleep in the summer; It has withstood the drastic changes of cold and heat, all of which are brought about by the excellent quality of purple sand. Purple clay has good plasticity, is highly plastic, up to, can be processed into different shapes at will. In practice, purple sand is more malleable than other ceramic materials or clay, and has a wide range of molding.

Unlike ordinary clay, it is not easy to deform after high-temperature firing, and the shrinkage rate of the finished product and the green body is only 10%.

Purple sand mud has good plasticity, which is manifested in strong adhesion, but does not stick to workers and hands. For example, the mouth and handle can be made separately, and then glued to the body of the pot, and then carved with clay. The clay flakes of square ware can be bonded with grease (with more water) and then processed.

Such a large process capacity provides a material guarantee for the potters to fully express their creative intentions and display their craft skills.

The inside and outside of the teapot are not glazed, which has a harmonizing effect on the tea soup. It can not only give full play to the aroma of tea, but also can be safely stored for a long time. The rate of decay is much slower than that of glass.

A teapot is more fragrant than a glass cup for tea. Brew tea twice at the same time with a teapot and a glass. After the glass is slowly soaked, there is no smell and the color no longer changes.

The tea flavor of the purple clay pot is still spreading, and the color can continue to change. The teapot has a certain bactericidal effect. The bactericidal effect of the purple clay pot is mainly because after the tea leaves are brewed for a long time, there is a certain acidity of the tea leaves in the purple clay pot, which can inhibit the growth rate of bacteria.

That's why we often say that teapots don't spoil overnight. The teapot also keeps warm very well. Compared with porcelain or glassware, the clay of the purple clay pot has many pores, and the thermal conductivity of heat in the vacuum is particularly poor, so the thermal insulation effect of the purple clay pot is better than that of porcelain or glassware.

The good plasticity and adhesive ability of purple sand mud are the main reasons why it is conducive to process decoration. Secondly, the firing temperature of purple sand is also very wide, from 1190 degrees Celsius to 1270 degrees Celsius. At present, the firing temperature is controlled at about 1200 degrees Celsius, which is another reason why purple sand products do not leak or age, and the more they are used, the more shiny they are.
