Some pot lovers will say that this pot is not standard enough when expressing their opinion on certain pots. In their hearts there may be a standard pot that they regard as this type, when they see a pot of the same kind.
It is customary to compare the two, and as long as it does not meet the standard in his mind, he thinks it is not done well. So this question we have to look at the situation, do you know that at the beginning of learning to make a pot, in order to train the basic skills of the eyes to the hand? Copying is a compulsory course for every pot maker, only by showing what he thinks in his heart and what he sees in his eyes completely and impartially can he enter the next higher stage in pot making skills. So if a pot is completely made by copying, then the image of copying is not accurate? This is indeed the embodiment of an artist's skill, but in another case, if a pot is not a simple copy of the work, but adds some of the author's original ideas, then at this time, if there are any standards to measure the shape of the pot, it is too unwise.
The craft of making pots, especially the completely manual molding method. It requires long-term and arduous training, and sometimes copying this stage is quite long for artists, but if the basic skills are not consolidated at this stage, then the road behind is difficult to go long. Therefore, the standard of being able to make a type of instrument is indeed a very important goal in a certain stage of the artist's art, but this is definitely not the ultimate goal of the artist. The ultimate goal of an artist is to gain an artistic freedom in making a pot, to freely develop his ambitions and ideas, and to be able to make works that meet or even exceed his expectations.
At this stage, the question of whether or not to standardize is not something they will bother to consider at all.
