What is the collection prospect of teapot?
The value composition of a teapot can be comprehensively considered from three aspects: clay, technology and culture. First of all, the reserves of Zisha Mine are very limited. A few years ago, Yixing City, Jiangsu Province imposed a "no mining" on purple sand raw materials, which led to an explosion in the price of good clay. Although the ban has been lifted in the middle of this year, the price of high-grade mud remains high. Well-known local artists make a good pot, and the cost of mud alone ranges from several hundred yuan to thousands of yuan. At present, most of the low-priced teapots on the market use clay similar to purple sand. Secondly, the added value of the teapot process is not cheap. Well-known artists give their artistic inspiration to purple clay, thus creating the beauty of purple clay pots. It usually takes about a month to make a beautiful teapot by hand. Finally, the inscriptions and text carvings of the teapot are also quite particular. A good pot with profound calligraphy skills is naturally valuable to the next level. Wu Zhenyu believes that in addition to everyone's works, a new generation of famous artists have the ability to create good pots. For collectors, their works can be paid more attention. As long as they choose the right thing, early intervention will definitely pay off in the future. Contemporary masterpieces should not be missed. "Many works of contemporary famous teapot have been higher in price than the old pots in Ming and Qing Dynasties." Zhou Shuiming, the owner of Hengtai Zisha Pot Shop in Yiwu International Flower Market, told reporters that the number of Yiwu citizens who came to buy Zisha Pots has increased significantly in the past two years, and a small number of pot friends will directly request to order the works of a famous artist. Zhou Shuiming suggested that pot friends with certain strength can choose famous works of teapot with good background and orderly inheritance for collection or investment. Such as masters over 60 years old, Pan and others; The representatives of 50-60 years old are Ge, Ding Yaping, Shi, etc. The largest number of people aged 40-50, including Wu Zhenyu, Gao Zhenyu, Xu Wei, Ren Beian, Xue Weiping, Zou Yuejun and Tang Binjie, are "potential stocks" that cannot be ignored. As for the works of Zhu Kexin, Wang Yinchun, Jiang Rong, Gu Jingzhou and Wu Yungen, they are either hidden in the hands of senior collectors or kept in museums and rarely appear in the market. Therefore, novices can pay more attention to the younger generation of famous pot friends, and pot friends can start selectively according to their own preferences.
