# Transformation into Spirit ## Zhongshi International Teapot (压盖式 Pressed Lid Style) Made during Gu Jingzhou's later years, with a capacity of 370 milliliters, this teapot is moderate in size with smooth and regular lines. The vessel form is robust yet refined, with the base and body displaying subtle curved surfaces, highlighting a character of strength tempered with gentleness, harmonious yet vigorous in its appeal. ## Zhongshi International Teapot (Ziye Style) The "Ziye Zhongshi International Teapot" derives its name from Chen Yinshao. Chen Yinshao, a man of the Jiaqing and Daoguang periods of the Qing Dynasty, styled himself Ziye, also known as Mengchun, with the sobriquets Yuezhai, Qucai, Laozhi, Yefu, and the self-given name Hugong (Master of Teapots). Following in the footsteps of Mansheng and Shi Mei, he was another literatus skilled in epigraphy, calligraphy, and painting who became closely associated with the art of Yixing pottery. The teapots he decorated possessed an elegant refinement and delightful charm. The "Ziye Teapot" features a body shaped like an inverted pyramid, tapering from top to bottom, with a short straight spout and triangular handle. The form is full of tension, with a bridge-shaped lid knob and three flat feet attached to the base. The body and lid join seamlessly, creating a dignified and balanced appearance. The Japanese collector Ao Xuanbao's *Teapot Chronicle* includes a Ziye Zhongshi teapot, which Ao Xuanbao named "One Branch in Hidden Repose": "The spout flows downward, ending abruptly as if cut bamboo. The handle is not a complete ring. The lid has a bridge-shaped knob, and the base is fitted with three feet. There are also seal marks reading 'Fusheng's Imitation.' The form is short and graspable. On the front and back of the body are carved plum blossom branches, inscribed 'Fusheng's painting.' The knife work is lively and spirited. Eight characters are cast on the lid, reading above: 'How many lifetimes of cultivation to attain this,' inscribed by Ziye. The calligraphy is clear and lovely. The clay color is pale yellow. This teapot is suitable as a water dropper for the scholar's desk, and may also be used for tea without hindrance. It serves only for solitary drinking or drinking with one companion. The overall form resembles a small bird, hence the name 'One Branch in Hidden Repose.'"
