Notes
Primary text: a Ming treatise on Yixing teapots, their makers and clays (Chinese Wikipedia calls it the first known work devoted to zisha pots). Read in full on 2026-11-02 from a copy saved on os's Mac. The page does not name the printed edition it was transcribed from, and some characters are rendered as component descriptions (e.g. [上艸下誇]). The text records Shen Junyong's death in the fourth month of jiashen (1644), so this version was finished no earlier than 1644; the common 'c. 1640' is not stated in the page. Cite only for what Zhou Gaoqi writes; his accounts of the earliest makers are reports of what potters told him ('聞之陶家雲'), so they are shown as his account.
