Introduction: The work is of a simple and ancient style, with a continuous flow of charm, and it pays great attention to the teapot's shape and the collocation of lines. Although this is a square - shaped teapot, it also showcases the beauty of ribbed patterns and rounded curves. Starting from the bottom of the lid knob, the ribbed patterns resemble the stripes on a dragon's body, with clear outlines. The lid fits snugly on the teapot, integrating seamlessly with the body. The spout is designed as a dragon's head, and the water outlet is like the long tongue sticking out from the dragon's mouth, giving a sense of the dragon breathing clouds and mist, with an extraordinary momentum. The circular handle can be seen as the coiled dragon's tail. The overall shape of the whole piece looks grand, and its color is more lustrous. Truly, the name "Dragon Roaring in the Nine Provinces" lives up to its imposing manner!
Characteristics of the Clay Material: It has a strong earthy smell, similar to an honest farmer. With long - term use, its unique features gradually come to light. It undergoes significant changes during the process of use and nurturing, becoming warm, mellow, and solemn. The lines are beautiful and natural, the spout and handle are well - coordinated, and the combination of the body and the slender handle makes it even more elegant.
