Ningjin Cricket Jars
Ningjin cricket jars embody the essence of heaven and earth and the spirit of mountains and rivers. They produce both the bold and majestic northern jars and the delicate and exquisite southern pots. The entire process involves over ten meticulous steps, including soil extraction, slurry making, mud filtering, clay refining, mold forming, drying, polishing, carving, and firing. They look like jade, gleaming brilliantly; feel like a child’s skin, smooth and soft to the touch; when tapped, they produce a resonant metallic sound that is crisp and pleasing to the ear; when used, they are smooth but not slippery, retain water without drying out, and remain cool even in freezing temperatures. Not only do they combine practicality, aesthetics, and collectibility, but they are also increasingly becoming high-end art treasures for collection and gifting.
