benshan lüni

Literal meaning

native-mountain green clay

Definition#

Benshan lüni is a Yixing clay name associated with greenish raw material, not a requirement that the fired pot be green. Yingge Ceramics Museum describes its use in surface decoration and blends. The name alone does not authenticate a particular mine or the composition of a finished pot.
