Born in 1992, 邵斌 is one of the youngest Artists to ever attain the rank of L4 Associate Master Artist in YiXing, at 25 years of age (2017). He is renowned in YiXing for the Jiao Ni 绞泥 technique. Very difficult to master, only a few cracked the code. How to form "pebbles" of Jiao Ni, showing the extremely fine and detailed wavy lines, and yet subjecting it to 明针 Ming Zhen surface smoothening and refining work.
Superb price.
Now worth in YiXing at double that of USD1631.
Ming Zhen refining work is necessary to make a ZiSha work smooth. However, if performed on Jiao Ni, the surfaces would be messed up terribly. How the legendary Grand Master of The Arts Lü Yao Chen 吕尧臣 accomplish it, almost everybody had failed. All except the young rising star of Shao Bin 邵斌。
The first 绞泥壶 that I have acquired and I am extremely satisfied with the level of sophistication demonstrated in the workmanship, not to mention Master Shao's new take on the classic 华径壶 that incorporates his youthful flair! I'm so exhilarated just thinking about brewing tea in this vessel cum work of art! Thank you to the owners of Real Zisha who made this acquisition so fuss-free and I look forward to many more fruitful purchases!

She is so cute, and an amazing little teapot! Very well made and an absolute pleasure to use. If I am to get another zisha pot it would definitely be from here.
The entire process was smooth and wonderful! Everyone I spoke to was very nice and helpful. My pot also came out beautifully and I couldn’t be happier!
