so different from and light years ahead of the ubiquitous jigger-machined pots and half-handmade pots masquerading under the sales tagline of \"fully-handmade zisha\" pots.\u003c\/strong\u003e  These latter JM\/HHM pots are made in what we call 流水线 a.k.a. 'Factory-Line operation' whereby the main pot body after being jigger-machined or coming off from the mould, is passed to the next worker who fits on the spout, and subsequently this second worker will pass the pot on to another worker who will in turn fit on the handle.  Continuing so, the pressed lid is likewise passed to another worker who fit on the lid knob.  \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEACH WORKER has NO IDEA what the other one is doing,\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e and they are always working on fixed time lines stated by the boss.  For example, the worker being \"passed the baton\" a pot with the spout just fixed onto the body by his colleague, will only focus on fixing on the handle, \u003cstrong\u003ewith nil to little regard to WHETHER THE HANDLE fixed on will be cohesive with the spout.  Each worker has NO idea of HOW THE FINAL POT WILL LOOK LIKE.\u003c\/strong\u003e  Beyond poor craftsmanship and clay, the result of such processes are ugly pots with poor cohesiveness which experienced Artists, Craftsmen and collectors will tell from a metre away.  Experienced people in us, do not need to pick up a pot to check whether it is fully-handmade or made of zisha, we can tell from a metre away just by looking at the pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e~~~~~~~~~~~~\u003cbr\u003eThe keywords are: Detailing and Cohesiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA GOOD Fully-Handmade ZiSha Work combines great detailing and cohesiveness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e~~~\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 27, 174);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eExplained, https:\/\/www.realzisha.com\/blogs\/news\/actual-zisha-landscape-at-yixing , the Craftsman by selling his hard-worked ZiSha craft at $190-$240, $45-$65 goes to the cost of the craft, inclusive of the fees for the firing for the kiln operator (three times per pot), the packaging boxes, and between $32 to $52 for the clay (Zi Ni Di Cao Qing, Duan Ni and upwards) used per pot.\u003c\/span\u003e   Craftsman takes 3 days (fastest 2.5days) to craft a pot.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 27, 174);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIf he works 30 days a month without a single day of rest (no family time), he will craft 10-12 pots.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eIf he crafts for 25 days (five days of rest a month), his output will be 8-10 pots.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe success rate for Zi Ni (e.g. Di Cao Qing, Lao Zi Ni, Da Shui Tan etc) and Duan Ni (e.g. Jiang Po Ni, Qing Hui Duan, etc) is 70% on average.  Some times the whole batch of 10 may fail.  We have seen our Craftsmen suffer like this very often.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe success rate for Zhu Ni (e.g. Xiao Mei Yao Zhu Ni) pots is 60%, or 70% with most optimism and at the very, very best.  Unfortunately.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;
