Yann's Gallery has an article dedicated to the artist She Rong Fei. The article also discusses the clay he is able to source for himself and his wife, Shen Mei Hua, a Senior Master of Arts and Crafts of China.
I feel I paid a very fair price for the craftsmanship and clay represented in this piece by She Rong Fei.
My teapot brings out elements in Shou Pu Erh that my other pots have missed. It's nice when a teapot can help you enjoy a favorite tea all the more.
