Bottom line introduction: Wu Desheng Purple Clay Pottery Shop was established by Wu Hanwen in the fifth year of the Republic of China (1916). The store is located near Jiaoqiao Bridge in Yixing County. In the early period, it was printed as a small square seal in the Yang script of "Wu Desheng", and the bottom cover was used simultaneously. Later, it was printed as "Made by Wu Desheng". In the middle period, it was printed as "Wu Desheng System" and "Yixing Wu Desheng System". By the late 1920s, the shop owner Jinding Brand, Wu Hanwen created the famous brand of "Wudesheng" shop number "Jinding Brand". The printing of "Jinding Brand" takes the tripod as the pattern in the center, and the four corners are printed with "Jinding Brand" in regular script, which is dedicated to ordering bottles for "Wudesheng" shop. In the later Wu Han Dynasty, the seal "Pine and Crane Pavilion" was also printed on the refined pot in regular script. "Wu Desheng" and "Jinding Trademark" printed on the bottom of the teapot, and the cover handle was generally stamped with the small square seal of the pot maker. At that time, Yan Ru, Chu Yinlan, Wang Xichen, Feng Guilin, etc. were specialized in making purple sand teapots for Wu Desheng. Ren Ganting, an artist who was specialized in inscribing Wu Desheng, and Yu Guoliang, Cheng Shouzhen, Zhu Kexin, Wang Baogen, Wu Yungen, Wang Yinchun, etc. were often ordered to make the blanks. In the 14th year of the Republic of China (1925), Wu Hanwen set up a "Wu Desheng" branch in Shanghai, mainly selling purple clay products. The tea pot made by Wu Hanwen himself was also made by Wu Desheng in the early period. After the outbreak of the Anti Japanese War, "Wu 222. Kequn Desheng" went bankrupt, and the printing money of "Wu Desheng" and "Jinding Caixun Trademark" continued to be used until the end of 1939
