How to choose an intimate pottery tea set? The art of building a water pottery pot has always been known for its exquisite craftsmanship. Because Jianshui pottery jar is hand-made, hand-drawn, hand-painted, hand-carved, and unglazed, there will be various problems. The technological level is an important condition to judge the quality of pot making.
A pot is a pot, and practicality comes first. There is no doubt that the teapot is responsible for making tea. In other words, when choosing a teapot, you can't violate the basic principle of practicality.
1, the capacity should be suitable for your own use.
Pots should be based on personal drinking habits and consider the capacity of the pot. Teapots have many different capacities. The big one holds a few liters of water, and the small one only takes one cup.
2, mouth, button, handle, three points in a line.
The basic pot style seems simple, but it is not. There are many kettles with curved handles. In addition, it is quite common that the upper handle and the lower handle are not on the same vertical line.
The center of gravity should be stable and the end should be easy to hold. Some teapots are very heavy when they are held, either the handle is not properly designed and ergonomic, or the teapot wall is too thick (too much soil is used). Secondly, you can feel whether the position of applying force between your fingers and the kettle handle is comfortable.
The valve should be tightly closed.
The flip cover design is reasonable, and the tea leaves are convenient to enter and exit. The round pot should rotate smoothly, and the square pot should be flat and not deformed. The lines and surface decoration of the pot body are smooth, the inner wall is neat and neat, and the inscription is clear and correct.
If the pot is too small or poorly designed, it will take some effort to take out the tea residue. If you neglect it for a while and don't clean it, it is easier to form tea dirt on the inner wall of the pot body, which is harmful to your health.
4, water should be smooth, water should be decisive.
This point is not easy for most teapot to take into account. A good pot produces strong water, smooth arc and round water beam without distortion. Stop pouring when the water is cut off, which is concise and neat, without running water, and there is no residual water in the pot after pouring.
5. Colors and patterns are refined and harmonious.
Only when the aesthetics and practicality of the whole tea set are harmoniously combined can it be regarded as a perfect tea set.
