Orient Cha Artist Series: "Saint of Tea" Lu Yu — A monumental tribute to the father of tea culture. Crafted in the Summer of 2021 (Xin Chou Year) by the esteemed master Xun Shaohua, this sculpture embodies the profound spirit of Lu Yu, the author of the world's first tea encyclopedia, "The Classic of Tea".

 

Technical Mastery & Soulful Expression

  • Dual-Clay Innovation: This piece utilizes a rare combination of Purple Clay (Zi Ni) and Azure Duan Clay (Qing Duan). Balancing the different shrinkage rates of two clays during firing is an immense technical challenge, resulting in an extremely low success rate and high collectible value.
  • Vivid Presence: Lu Yu is depicted in a state of deep meditation, holding a tea cup with a dignified and serene expression. Beside him rests a miniature Yixing teapot, exquisitely detailed and charming.
  • Dynamic Textures: The intricate folds of his robes flow like rolling waves, showcasing the inner tension and masterful hand-carving skills of the artist.
  • Spiritual Atmosphere: Placing this sculpture in your tea room evokes a sense of history and deepens the meditative experience of every brew.
