Footnote
Shao Daheng, a native of Yixing, was a master potter during the Daoguang and Xianfeng periods of the Qing Dynasty. His works were highly esteemed, and even during the Tongzhi and Guangxu periods, many potters used his styles as templates. Shao Daheng's teapots are known for their simplicity and elegance, particularly in forms like the “Duoqiu” and “Fanggu” teapots.
邵大亨（約1831-1874），宜興人，為清代道光、咸豐年間的紫砂名匠。其作品備受推崇，即使在同治、光緒年間，仍有許多陶藝匠人以其風格為範本。邵大亨所製茶壺以簡約典雅著稱，尤以「掇球」與「仿古」壺式最為知名。
