i adore the use of the commercially made oxtail soup mug for water that everyone's grandma had in their home / thrift stores across north america to make this beautiful teapot. there is something so gorgeously human about an every day, kitschy little item seeing use in the process of creating something incredibly beautiful. I LOVE THIS WORLD!
You inspired me to build a teapot for my Dad. I recently dug out a bunch of clay from my garden. Nothing makes you appreciate the the work of a master like trying to accomplish his task from memory. Mine is not near as pretty as yours but I hope it makes it through the fire my Dad runs at least one pot of tea through it. Thank you for sharing the beauty of your craft
I have to make a teapot for my college course coming up and I’m dreading it. Teapots are one of the hardest thing to make on wheel more less by hand. I have to make it by hand. To slab build or coil build something and it come out like this is amazing. No fingerprints, no unevenness, smooth body and parts is just amazing.
Teapots are extremely easy to make on the wheel. The only part that is difficult is spout forming, but give it two weeks of dedicated practice and that too will be easy.
So moved to see this master craftsman creating something to demonstrate the art for us. It’s just stunning. It makes me appreciate the yixing pots more than ever. I can see now why they cost what they do too (assuming they are all handmade, not mass produced in molds). Thank you for making this video and sharing this process with us.
95% are hand made, before to make a teapot you have to make the tools first, and most different teapot need different tools, but not all, some tools can be used at all kind of teapots.
Yep; the tools are the objects to acquire. With good tools you can make this. all the tools are handmade; the surfacing tools are from mostly organic buffalo skin.
Anyone else and it would have taken way longer than 2 hours. That was impressive as shit!! I work with clay and that was an amazing pot that built by hand, no less.
As a child I read a story about an impatient and arrogant apprentice who who he learnt every thing he needed to make a teapot from the maste6, except the last and most important part: the hole in the lid that allows the liquid to pour out smoothly. I've watched a few of these teapot making videos but didn't see them making the hole, is it necessary?
It is necessary. but this wasn't a real functional pot. As stated in the narration, this would ordinarily be done over days, not in an hour. This is just a demo pot. But a good story, nonetheless :)!
You can read about the zisha clay Master Zhou is using and Yixing teaware in the September 2017 issue of Global Tea Hut. It is available free on our website. archive.globalteahut.org/issue/68
Can anyone tell me if there is a method for expanding the lid's small hole after the clay has been fired and teapot is about 30 years old? My lid's hole never got poked through all the way and needs to be gently and carefully opened. How can this be done? What tool and method if it's even possible? Thank you!
Zhou Qi Kun. We dont have his work, but the work of his studio and wife, who is also a master. If you are interested in one of his pots contact us. but they are very expensive. www.globalteahut.org
@@melliethemortician Yixing teaware does go through a firing process in an oven. This pot was made for demonstration to show roughly how these pieces are made. The real pot will take several days or even weeks to finish. This pot would never be sold and will just be broken down into clay that can be reused. That's why it didn't go into the oven :)

How did your teapot turn out ?
I just made one and I think it looks better than I thought it would

All I can focus on is that oxtail soup mug and remembering my childhood.
Yessss we had the whole collection, I used to love reading the recipe on it 😁😁
ok, I make one now
Es hermosa, saludos
Trabalhando maravilhoso👏👏🇧🇷
Heck, I can't get anywhere near that using a wheel!
🙏🙏👍👍
I want to know that how they made the clay for this kind of pottery...
Don't they need to bake it?
It is fired at the end, else it would get soft again when in touch with water
Zisha ❤️wish I could afford
Where can we buy simple tools to make these stuff ?
Like a tool box for hobby not work
Did it actually take 2 hours to make that pot? I guess the comment was about the pot lid.
Anyone else and it would have taken way longer than 2 hours. That was impressive as shit!! I work with clay and that was an amazing pot that built by hand, no less.

amazing... :O
what song is this?
Those are his work clothes?! Wonder what he wears when it's time to dress up?
You think too much, Chinese craftsman never has any specific dress for the work expect the job is very dirty and dusty, no body care that as I know.
lol this made me laugh haha
A Yves Saint Laurent evening dress of course

there are small ceramic drill bits you can use with a drill. i got some at home depot and they are the only thing that works with fired clay.
@@nh5221 Thank you!
don't know if it was said already, but the reason they don't use a wheel is so its more porus and the tea can add taste you know
where can i buy those ?
We have pots from his studio made by his wife, Master Chen: www.globalteahut.org
🙏🙏🙏
And suddenly he closed the upper part. Suddenly . How
Two questions:
Who is he?
And were can I find his work?
Zhou Qi Kun. We dont have his work, but the work of his studio and wife, who is also a master. If you are interested in one of his pots contact us. but they are very expensive. www.globalteahut.org

Junius Square
Name of the song?
0:12 What is the name of that tool?
Do these teapots get ripened in furnace afterwards? Or they r ready?
Yup, they go into the kiln.
伝統が息づいている。
讲究
He's doing this while wearing a suit jacket.
You think too much, LOL
Даже в мыслях не было что так делают глиняные чайнички!!
Очень редко. И стоит такой... обычно по другому делают
Respect!!!!
Мастер
He didn't put it in oven .. why?
desert knight s It hardens on its own from sitting out, putting it in the oven would dry it out and he doesnt want that.
