Special Series from all our Top Artists:
1. Ying Xi Gong Deng 婴戏宫灯, 430ml, $1967, Ming Guo Duan Ni 曹家明国段泥, from Senior Master Cao Lan Fang 高级工艺美术师~曹兰芳。
This is an Auspicious piece! created by Cao Lan Fang to welcome the New Year! Two things especial: 1) She dug into our Cao Family's specially curated and stored Lao Duan Ni and 2)used her skilled firing sequences to recreate and achieve the superb Ming Guo Duan Ni effect, extremely rich texture of colors! One of the very Best Duan Ni, that even our uncle Premier Master Cao An Xiang rarely uses and one that we try to preserve for our family's tradition and heritage since the 1920s. Senior Master Cao also appointed Craftsman to do the Mo Hui 墨绘。 Mo Hui is one of the special technique of ink drawing/illustration for ZiSha in YiXing, and here Senior Master Cao and Craftsman designed the caricature of Children Playing with Fire Crackers and the Auspicious Taels and Coins, to augur and bring in prosperity for the family of the owner! A largish ZiSha composition which involves a lot of difficulty of holding the whole shape up (the upper neck and the lid are very heavy and causes gravitational stress on the shoulder of the body. This pot had several failures before this sixth one turns out beautifully here! This $1967 is a price that allows you to embrace Senior Master Cao Lan Fang's skill and Cao Family's own specialty clay.
2. Yun Ying 云婴, Cao Family 100% Pure Ben Shan Lü Ni 曹家稀有, 100% 纯本山绿泥, $1130 from Assoc Master Zhang Ke 助理工艺美术师~张轲。
