Prof Pan versus Prof Pan

Here is a video on two sets of the pumpkin teapots created and made by Prof Pan Chunfang. The pots and cups are put side by side. It is indeed a pleasure to admire the works of a great master.

I have written on many occasions on Prof Pan and his teapots. He was a senior craftsmaster in Yixing and was active in the 70s and 80s. Because of his talent, he was seconded to  the Nanjing Academy of Fine Arts where he became a professor of fine arts. His work revolves around pottery designs and creative works of art. He trained a lot of potters from Yixing. He was well rested by his fellow potters and many look to him as a source of inspirations. Occasionally, he also makes teapots. He came to Singapore a few times to exhibit his works.
