It is mostly from Mount Ding (\u4e01\u5c71) and Mount Shu (\u8700\u5c71) in Dingshu township where nearly a million workers and artisans worked to produce teapots in the late imperial period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Famous teapot craftsmen dominated the craft in the Ming and Qing period. In the Republican period, famous calligraphers and painters also participated in decorating the teapots. A drastic decline in the art occurred in the 1950s, when only around fifty masters were recorded in Yixing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">The photo was taken in September 2014 in Yixing. It shows Fan Yi (\u8303\u6bc5) who learned the art from master Gu Jingzhou (\u9867\u666f\u821f).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:22px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/angelaleung.site\/mmea19\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/purple-clay-teapots-479.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2515\" width=\"480\" height=\"781\" srcset=\"https:\/\/angelaleung.site\/mmea19\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/purple-clay-teapots-479.jpg 640w, https:\/\/angelaleung.site\/mmea19\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/purple-clay-teapots-479-184x300.jpg 184w, https:\/\/angelaleung.site\/mmea19\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/purple-clay-teapots-479-630x1024.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Source: Pan Wenlong (\u6f58\u6587\u9f8d) and Gong Wei (\u9f94\u70ba),\u00a0<em>Old Trades of Jiangsu: A Glimpse<\/em>\u300a\u6c5f\u8607\u8001\u884c\u7576\u767e\u696d\u5beb\u771f\u300b, Phoenix Education Publishing Company, 2018.
