Introduction to the bottom article: Xu Hantang, born on May 11, 1932 in Yixing, Jiangsu, is a master of Chinese arts and crafts. He has won the "Lifetime Achievement Award for Chinese Arts and Crafts" and is the only person in the purple sand industry in China to receive this honor. [1]
After graduating from junior high school in 1948, he followed his parents to learn art. In 1952, he became his teacher and first disciple under Gu Jingzhou, the contemporary purple sand tycoon. In 1972, Xu Hantang and his younger brother Xu Xiutang designed a set of "fifteen head silver inlaid coffee set", which was collected by the Chinese Palace Museum. In 2014, the Education Foundation, named after Xu Hantang's donation of 10 million yuan, was officially established. In November 2017, the authorization ceremony for the production of the purple clay teapot "Palace Pot" designed by Ji Hansheng was held in Fanjia Pot Village, Yixing. Fan Xiuhong, the grandson of Fan Dasheng, became the only authorized person to produce the "Palace Pot", and Xu Hantang, the Chinese master of arts and crafts, provided artistic guidance for the production.
