《乐石提梁》"Le Shi Ti Liang ~ The Delight Of A Rock ～ Top Handle " ~ 紫泥 Zi Ni,
219.8ml,
by L3A Consummate Master Artist Li Yan Ru 李艳如。
Master Li delights us with another one of her Fine Art as a L3A Consummate Master Artist:《乐石提梁》"Le Shi Ti Liang"!

This is Master Li's extreme labour of love, hard work, having exhausted her eye muscles constantly after multiple split sessions each lasting an hour. 

Be treated to a minimal ornate ZiSha work borne of exquisite aesthetic conception, DETERMINED craftsmanship and hard work.
Her Le Shi Top Handle ZiSha piece:




First, ADMIRE MASTER LI'S painstakingly crafted almost parallel, never non-crisscrossing lines, across a highly irregular, undulating surface to mimic a rock within a stream!
The brilliance of Master Li Yan Ru!  These lines bring the user to rejoice at the pebble! with the artistic rendition of the horizontal shearing forces of water across its surfaces.

~ Motion in stillness ~ which Master Li wants to portray when designing, planning and creating this work: as if the pebble is happily being subjected to the moving, flowing water across its surfaces.  A Real Artistic Delight for its owner! 



Owner of this proud work of Master Li, will appreciate and admire daily, how she had crafted these feature lines not just painstakingly across the body, but also over the spout and most amazingly over the entire handle.  Master Li's steady hands, eyesight and patience, resulted in such tremendous beauty over the handle.  Never fluffed.  All clear and delightfully parallel and natural.



Master Li also took care of the ergonomics of using a Top Handle work!  Top Handle work usually entails the use of two hands when serving tea: right hand holding the top handle, left index and middle fingers pressing on the lid.
However Master Li overcomes this traditional accepted norm, by crafting a delightful Lid Knob in the likeness of the natural formed rocks from Lake Tai: now the user can use one hand to lift, tilt and pour, as the middle and ring finger naturally reach out, press and steady the pot's tilt during the pour.  Very instinctive and convenient!  Thanks to Master Li's foresight and design of the lid knob!



We cannot stop speaking of the delightful lid knob, as Master Li crafted it with height, grip and satisfying girth for the owner to lift off the lid without scalding the fingers:

Master Li spares zero effort as she even crafts the INNER BASE, with the undulating yet structured rock patterns!

This is an amazing work to collect for prodigy L3A Master Li before she ascends to L2 Senior Master.

We have already seen how Master Li Yan Ru professes, specialises and "owns!", the hugely onerous COMBINATION Segmental-Corollary PLUS Overhead Top Handle Class works.  Her Designs are not just pushing Senior Artists and Research Level Artists, they are winning multiple awards!  Totally Understandable for her virtuoso skills honed from many years of hard work and learning since young.

Besides her specialty class Master Li has always, consistently been crafting Austere and Polygonal Works as well for our Chinese patrons! All who insist on having her craft for them. 

Master Li Yan Ru crafts Austere, Polygonal and Segmental-Corollary Works, and she only avails them with us at RealZiSha.

Master Li gained her accreditation as L3A Consummate Master Artist on the 12th December 2023 and she deeply appreciates all your time and being with her, as she scales to L2 Senior Master soon!

~~~~~~~~~~
Master Li has consistently orders coming through for her Austere works ever since she has been working with us in China since 2018, and her international debut with us in mid-2024 which showcased three of her signature and award-winning Segmental-Corollary ZiSha works.  The fourth and highly proclaimed, Segmental-Corollary ZiSha work was launched in December and was snatched up within a day.  She regularly crafts Austere and Polygonal works on her own terms, and what she loves to manifest.
