Today we are talking about a very sensitive topic: prices。
In particular, the price of the purple sandpot is believed to be felt by many of its friends. Prices are so unstable that they may range from dozens to hundreds of dollars, thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars, and they can be random. As a potplayer, how can we control such prices and buy a proper pot at a reasonable price
First, i have divided the price ranges in this market roughly into the following. The first is between $300 and $500, the so-called practical half-hand pot that is common in this area. In this zone, we should focus on the mud from the pot, for example, we can choose some purple mud, part mud or red mud。
As long as it's raw, it's not bad. The only thing that needs to be noted is that in this zone we have to avoid choosing pots of blending or chemicals。
The second point is between $1,500 and $2,000. In many cases, the price should be a fully hand-made pot-type primer price. But in most market situations, you might get a handmade kettle. In this zone, we should pay more attention to whether the pot is really hand-held。
Otherwise, we'd have bought a half-manufactured pot at all cost. That's too bad。
The third point is between $3,000 and $5,000. In this zone, we should focus on potwork. Because if it's a small-minded seller who gave you a pot, it's supposed to be hand-made, and the mud is not bad。
After all, they can't give you bad material in such high-priced areas. So our focus should be on potwork, see if the sculpture details match this price。
The fourth point is between $80 and $10,000. We don't need to pay too much attention to potwork and mud, and more importantly, whether it's made by a teacher himself。
Because of the teachers who are able to reach this level, they are certainly very good at their own crafts in this price zone. If they're serious about making it, and they're making it for you, it's definitely okay。
Well, that's it for today. I'll see you next time。
