The Guest-Greeting Pine is one of the most iconic symbols in China. It stands for strength, peace, warmth and inclusiveness, embodying the spirit of fortitude, courage and daring to break through limits.
This teapot is meticulously made from selected raw ore Zisha clay, decorated with the appliqué technique. The body is shaped like a section of pine trunk, with a rugged and weathered bark texture. The pine branches twist naturally above, and the pine needles are rendered with both realistic detail and artistic charm, achieving an excellent balance of form and spirit.
The spout and handle are both sculpted from aged pine branches, upright and vivid. The inlaid lid is irregularly shaped to mimic the effect of tree rings. The knob is a forked pine branch dotted with delicate pine needles, full of lively interest. The whole pine-stump teapot features exquisite layered craftsmanship, vividly reproducing the aged, rough texture of an ancient pine tree to a remarkable likeness.
