Twinkling little stars on pots

A pair of globular pots from the 90s.

These globular pots were popular during the 90s. They were also not expensive either. The pots were decorated with poker dots (yellow sand particles) embedded in the purplish clay. These dots look as if they were twinkling little stars in a grey sky.

 
Today, potters like to blend zisha of different colours to make their teapots. This gives the teapots a new look and a unique texture.
