Mr. Gu Jingzhou began to make pots from the age of 17, even if it is done every day, without interruption, regardless of illness, regardless of cold and heat, at most 5,000 purple sand pots, if you count ten days to make a fine product, probably can make more than 1,000 fine purple sand pots in a lifetime, due to natural loss, war and man-made disasters and other factors, remains to this day, may not exceed 100 of his fine products.
But now in the hands of various publications, auctions and museums, art museum institutions and individual collectors, as well as tea cities, craft cities, antique cities, foreign flea markets and other places across the country, we can count that there may be more than 1 million purple sand pots stamped with Gu Jingzhou's seal.

In a sense, this phenomenon is that the flood of fake pots in the purple sand art market today is caused by the market itself, and the market is digging its own grave. Everyone knows that money is good, money is a quantifiable standard, but the most precious value of purple sand art is truth, goodness and beauty, if they are handed over to the market, the local government lacks restraint, purple sand can not be called art, I think not only sorry Mr. Gu Jingzhou, but also for people who love purple sand art is undoubtedly a scam.
