Jiang Soonyin's zhisa

Jiang Soonyin is a craftsmaster of Yixing.

Alans Museum had in the past acquired quite a number of her teapots. Here is one teapot by Jiang which was made using the yellow clay. This clay is currently in short supply and not many teapots have are made using this type of clay. Jiang's teapot was probably made in the 1980s. It has the classic round shape and its not very tall, ideal for brewing green tea.
