Dearest Friends, we present our new collaborative Craftsman, Wang Jian Long, and we asked him to do his best for you friends.
This is what we had discussed and specially arranged with him.
Wang Jian Long succeeded to impress us.
This is a very excellent Yi Li Zhu! Very beautifully formed.
1. Looking at the absolutely natural-flowing, silhouetted spout, we know it came with lots of effort and experience.
2. The lid is of the difficult Qian-Gai interface, whereby the lid sits INSET into the top surface of the pot.
3. The overall organic form and PERFECT proportions of this lovely and beautiful Yi Li Zhu.
Appreciate and cherish this latest collaborative hard work and successful pot out from the kiln. We welcome our new and invited collaborative Craftsman Wang Jian Long. We thank him and he too is very glad to be with us.

This pot has the discontinuous and roughly horizontal marks in the inner walls, and these are called the: 泥凳纹 Ni Deng Wen, which are the marks left on the clay slab , complementary to the marks on the workbench of the Craftsman Wang Jian Long!!!🙇♂️🤗🎋 During the making of FHM ZiSha pots, the Craftsman will be using tools to cut the clay slabs, etc, and these leave marks on the studio workbench. Especially the first major forceful cut across the table to delineate the clay she/he wants to utilize to form the main body of the body. Thus when the craftsman subsequently pound the clay slab on a well-worn workbench which bear these cut-in marks, these marks will be etched complementarily onto the clay slab! Thus you are "enjoying" the additional natural hallmarks of a Fully-Handmade pot. (For example, a partially handmade pot will not show these marks). And for those Jigger-machined pots, what they manifest are CONCENTRIC, continuous circular lines, all parallel to one another.
Love the puffer fish style. The recessed base makes it even more special. Fantastic work. This is a very special addition to my collection.
This is my first fully handmade zisha and I must say it has exceeded my expectations. The form is so balanced and well-crafted. It is so light! The pour is like glass, I’ve never experienced anything like it. I am truly grateful to Chen Fa Chu and RealZisha for being and doing what you do. Thank you.

This is a work of art, incredible details and hard work was put in to achieve this level of perfection.
I was guided throughout the whole process of choosing the perfect pot for my needs and I was given many examples and recommendations.
If you want a real yixing pot this is the place to come and if you have any questions they are happy to help and guide you into choosing your next piece of art.
The craftmanship is perfect and the pour - surprisingly smooth! So pleased with my first Zisha pot. Beautifully packaged too! Thank you!
