The first process of pinching the mouth without mold and dark mouth, although it is made at will, it also has a natural cause, known as "Peng Nian Jug". Chen Mansheng once said: "Yang JunPeng Nian, the pot making Gong Shi left the law." "What is the "Gong Shi Testament Law"? That's the traditional process of kneading sand pots by hand. Because "in the Qianlong period, pots were mostly made of molds, and their methods were simple, and the method of Dabin's hand pinching was rarely passed down to others." Peng Nianshan made a sand pot, the method of fabrication, although it was made at will, it had its own natural style" (Notes on Cultivating Yan Tianzhai)
In the book "Former Dust Dream Video" written by Xu Kang in the Qing Dynasty, it is recorded that "the purple sand pot master Chen Mansheng Sima in the Jiaqing period official Jingxi Zai, suitable for the good worker Yang Pengnian, good at making sand pots, and for pinching the mouth without mold, although randomly made also has a natural cause, a family, and work this skill..." A few words, can be described as an appropriate evaluation of Yang's pot art.
Yang Pengnian is a model of comprehensive cooperation between purple sand artists and literati, and has cooperated with many literati.

After checking the county chronicle, Chen Jing was the commander of Yixing County, had a special love for purple sand pots, and had deep contacts with the pot artist Yang Pengnian. The unique design of the whole pot shape is in line with the creative style of the inscription, and the author injects the literati thought into the body, so that the pot art style is in harmony with the inherent connotation of purple sand, and the artistic effect of unity of meaning and interest and special destination is achieved.

Yang Pengnian has a certain knowledge of literature and history, calligraphy and painting skills, and is an artist with a literati temperament. In yang Pengnian's long-term cooperation and exchanges with the literati, he was "close to Zhu Zhichi", and his own cultural accomplishment was also correspondingly improved. It is said that he made pots and was also good at pottery carving, "and good at carving bamboo and tin, which is also good." (Notes on Cultivating Yan Tianzhai).) Yang Pengnian has a certain knowledge of literature and history, which can be proved from the following two works. First, he once imitated the Yixing ancient cultural relics Guoshan Stele, made a purple sand bottle, and imitated the ancient characters of the stele to engrave pottery on the bottle (picture, now in the Nanjing Museum), without a certain knowledge of literature and history, how can there be this creative inspiration? Second, there is a "square plate of verses and verses with four square corners" in the Purple Sand Vessel in the Forbidden City. This square disc is engraved with a cross-shaped pattern and a quadrangle to form a River Lo figure. The whole line inscription yun is engraved on the left and right sides of the pan heart: "The ancient Yellow Emperor dreamed of two dragons to give the map, is the Jai Yi River Luo Qiuzhi, get the dragon horse map, and order Cangjie to create characters... Yu Yu yan Zhu drip dew time. Feeling the plate of Si Zhi Heluo, placing it on the right side of the seat, and not forgetting the aspirations of the original", the post-signature is "Daoguang Jia WuYi Qiu Jia Zi Shuo Shu Yu Yang Peng Nian System of Yang Xian You Shi Shan Fang": From this square disk and its inscriptions, we can glimpse Peng Nian's creative thoughts and prove that he is an artist with profound knowledge of literature and history and a literati temperament.

In the middle of the Qing Dynasty, Yang Pengnian restored Shi Dabin's handmade pot relics, and cooperated with a large number of literati such as Mansheng to produce a number of literati pots with novel shapes and inscriptions, and he was also good at writing and carving, versatile, and together with Chen Mansheng and other literati, he made certain contributions to the development of purple sand.
Thousand years of purple sand, stretching to this day; elegant and popular appreciation, culture first. We can't imagine what the culture of the purple clay pot would have been like without the participation of the literati. It is precisely with the participation of literati that the purple sand pot integrates painting, calligraphy, engraving, design and many other artistic disciplines to form a picturesque artistic style, making its production leap from craftsmanship to the level of artistic creation.
The literati on the purple sand pot or chant or sigh, or carving or painting, the characters are pearls, like a cuckoo crying blood, not full of literary thoughts, as far as they can be. It is also because of this that Wang Wenbai has a sentence: "The pearls and jade in the world are safe and sufficient, and it is like a pill of soil in the Yang Envy Creek." ”
