Fan Yu Jun: Bamboo Whisper

The loose definition of the classic form “Han Bell” lends much flexibility for the artist to interpret the Yixing teapot according to their own inspiration. This delicate work by the hard working hands of Fan Yu Jun does represent a fine manifestation of the ancient spirit of Han civility.

The recipe of the clay employed is also worth noting: to emulate the appearance of the very rare Jiang Po Sha — a Yixing clay in a tiny locality of that name near the original Wang Long quarry — the clay master blended quite a mix of materials from different bed levels. The resultant appearance is not only more appealing than the original, but also practical in its light weight and porosity.

This pot is good for medium to long duration infusion and slow pouring.

Fan Yu Jun himself is a young and rising star in the Yixing arena.
