[Imitation of ancient new stars, high disciples of the Ye School] Xin Bingzhen, born in 1997, belongs to a purple sand family. His father's generation runs ancient pots, and he has been exposed to the rich aesthetics of ancient pots since he was a child. At the age of 18, he became a disciple of Master Ye Hongjun and studied the ancient method of purple sand with concentration to this day. He is known as the "Little Prince of Ancient Method" because of his skillful pot-making techniques.

While continuing to study with Teacher Ye, Teacher Xin Bingzhen began to use what he had learned to copy the classic purple sand masterpieces of older years. He only made about ten pieces of each style, strictly controlled the number of pots, and pursued the most exquisite and best works to show off.

[Student: Ye Hongjun ] Ye Hongjun, born in 1968, learned the traditional techniques of Zisha Craft Factory in his early years. Over the past decades, he has laid a solid foundation for traditional square, round, rib patterns and flower utensils. In recent years, he has devoted himself to studying the evolution of the types of utensils from the middle to the early Qing Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, as well as the types of utensils that have been lost in the early Ming Dynasty, focusing on restoring the atmosphere of the purple clay in the Ming Dynasty at its peak. His works pursue an ethereal realm.
