Identification name of purple clay teapot

The methods for identifying the names of general sand pots can be summarized as follows:

1. Pictographic nomenclature. This method is to name the pot according to its shape. This naming method is easy to understand and intuitive. You can read the name and know the pot. It is the most commonly used method. For example, the traditional round-shaped "ball-pushing" pot is named because the shape of the pot resembles two balls stacked together; while the "square", "bafang", "brick-square" and "shengfang" pots directly imitate the shape of the square pot. Pot shape. Pictographic nomenclature is especially suitable for flower and muscle goods. Such as monk's hat, plum blossom, pumpkin, bagua dragon head, a bundle of bamboo, fish turning into dragon, six-petal magnolia, eight-petal chrysanthemum, etc. You can even add height and size to distinguish them, such as eminent monk's hat, big plum blossom, etc.; As for Qinquan teapots, well railing teapots, pillar teapots, bamboo slip tea sets, Bolang cone teapots, etc., they are all directly named after the imitations of sand teapots. The advantage of the pictographic nomenclature is that you can think of a pot by its name or by seeing its name. It has a popular image and is popular with the public.

2. Extended nomenclature. From the image of the shape object, it is named with a slight abstract extension. This kind of pot name is often more philosophical and literal, so it can make people think deeply. Such as Siyuan pot. It was originally a well-railed pot shaped like an ancient well. It was called a "siyuan" pot because the man who dug the well always remembered the source of the drinking water. I suddenly feel that the momentum is extraordinary; the plum blossom pot created by Zhu Kexin, and named "Announcement of Spring" pot, reminds people of Chairman Mao's poem "Bu Suanzi·Yong Mei", "The beauty does not compete for spring, but only repays spring"; Zodiac commemoration The pot is called "auspicious" pot (Year of the Rooster), "prosperous" pot (Year of the Dog), "Sanyang Kaitai" pot (Year of the Sheep)... It also has this meaning, such as the "Bamboo for Peace" pot (with bamboo for peace). The pot with the theme of "Moonlight over the Flowing Pond" (the pot with lotus as the theme), the sky pot (which takes the meaning of the Tang Dynasty poem "Only lotuses can be seen in the sky of the Yangtze River" because the twisted mud is decorated like river water) are derived from pictograms , or it is philosophical, or elegant, or it creates a situation, or it is poetic and picturesque, which can better meet the needs of literati. It is also a common method for literati to name sand pots.

3. Allusive nomenclature. That is, it is named after some historical allusions, such as the traditional work "Dongpo Tibetan Teapot" (or "Su Ti"). It is said that it was designed by the great scholar Su Dongpo who once lived in Yangxian and was fond of drinking tea and had a "pine breeze". There is a good story about the bamboo stove and the teapot shouting at each other. Later generations added it and named the Liangtihuo "Dongpo Liangtihu" to make it heavier. According to legend, the "Shichao" pot among the Mansheng teapots was created by Zhou Dynasty in the Northern Song Dynasty. He gave Dongpo a stone-cut "Shichao" teapot. Mansheng continued to use this name and said, "It is made by Zao, the work of rolling, self-made, not Zhou", which means this "Shichao" purple clay teapot. , it is not the style of Zhou Dynasty, but I designed it to be made of purple sand, using such an allusion. Although the "Qin Quan" pot and "Bolang Cone" pot mentioned above are named after imitation utensils, they are made of purple sand. It reminds people of historical allusions and creates a sense of vicissitudes.

Four. Decorative nomenclature. That is, the method of naming a certain decoration of pot art, such as the historical works "Bagua Painted Big Pot" and "Consecration". The names of pots such as "Painted Purple Clay Square Pot" and "Sifang Painted Pot" not only point out the shape of the pot (large pot, square pot, square pot, etc.), but also point out the decorative characteristics-painted; and such as "Tin-colored square base pot" , "Tin-covered pot" points out the tin-wrapped decoration technology in the name of the pot: such as "mahogany inlaid imperial pot", "appliqué square consecrated pot", "clay painted girdle round pot", "twisted mud pot" The names of the pots include "mahogany inlay", "appliqué", "clay painting", "wound mud" and other decorative techniques.

5. Treat the clay pot as alive. The most typical example of using this method is the Japanese Olanda (Xuanbao). In his "Illustrated Teapot", he named each of the 32 teapots included, such as "The old man in Liangyuan", "Hidden in Xiaoshan City", "Ding of Duyuan", "Mr. Wolong", "Fairy Lingbo", "Concubine after the Bath", "Husband of Iron and Stone", "Romantic Prime Minister"... and a pair of pots , he called them "Yu Tong" and "Qiao Qing" respectively. Not only that, these pots also have surnames, given names, and characters, such as "Fangshan Yishi" whose surname is "Qu", whose first name is "Duan", and whose courtesy name is "Yuanzheng"; The "beautiful young man" has a surname of "Yin", a first name of "Yan", a character of "Qianxi", etc. In fact, "Fangshan Yishi" is the "brick square pot"; "Mr. Wolong" is Mansheng's "Ruo Li Pot", "Ling Bo" "Fairy" is the muscular "narcissus with six petals", and "beautiful boy" is the "red clay pot"... This nomenclature is very interesting.

Among traditional works, those named with anthropomorphic methods include: "Shouxing Pot", "Xiaoying Pot", "Sanyou Pot", "Xishi Pot" and so on.

In short, there are many ways to name purple clay teapots, and pictograms and extensions are the most commonly used. However, no matter what method of naming, the naming method must be based on the principle of elegance and popular taste. You can use popular images and call them by their first names. Such as "cow-topped foreign barrels", "small bamboo joints", etc., which appear simple and friendly but should not be vulgar or kitsch. If someone calls his or her pot "the divine pot", "the magic pot" or "the strange pot", it will inevitably make people laugh and make people sick. With the improvement of people's cultural literacy and appreciation level, the names of clay pots are required to be more elegant and refined, so the extended method and personification method will be more used, such as the "Siyuan Pot" and "Spring Pot" mentioned above. Another example is the "Queyue", "Hengyun", "Hehuan", "Yinhong", etc. in the Mansheng pot. Not only are the names of the pots elegant and noble, but also the inscriptions of cutting the pot and cutting the tea combine the name, shape and inscription of the pot. Completely integrated into one whole.
