德鐘壺

德鐘壺一、器型溯源：德鐘與鐘德德鐘壺，壺身造型取自古器「盅」型，圓潤平鈕與壺身相諧，配以直流、耳型鋬，線條簡練而氣韻渾厚。德鐘壺有趣的是，此壺又名「鐘德」，二字前後顛倒，意蘊卻大不相同。「鐘德」一詞，源於《道德經》「上德不德，是以有德」之思——鐘為禮樂之器，象徵王道教化；德則為儒家修身之本，二者交融，暗合「外儒內道」的傳統智慧。二、鐘德之意：禮樂與修身的交融《康熙字典》釋「鐘」：「樂鐘也，鐘空也，內空受氣多，故聲大。」鐘與鼓同為華夏最古樂器，儒家以「禮樂」為教化根基，故「鐘德」亦可解為「樂德」，寓意以音律養德，以器載道。顧景舟在《宜興紫砂珍賞》中曾言：「德清儉素，儒雅中和。」得遇此壺者，往往心生肅敬，如對君子。然壺名紛紜——「德鐘」、「鐘德」、「德中」、「中德」，究竟何者為正？至今壺界尚無定論，卻也正因如此，更顯漢字意蘊之妙，耐人尋味。三、器韻之美：謙和如君子德鐘壺莊重儒雅，質樸大度，壺肩線條圓轉流暢，鋬、流與壺身自然銜接，疏朗大氣。靜觀其器，不由感嘆：「涵光華於樸厚，寄風雅於平常。」若暫且忽略鋬流，單看壺身，其形恰似「圓盅」。《辭海》釋「盅」：「器皿空虚。」《老子》云：「道盅而用之。」此壺以圓整周正之形，喻虛懷若谷之心，不正是「以器示道」的體現嗎？四、以器載道：紫砂中的儒家精神中華文化以儒家為主流，講求「修身立德，兼濟天下」。紫砂藝人以手抟器，心手相合，將哲思凝於一壺。德鐘壺的「虛空」之態，恰如君子胸懷，能容天下茶湯，亦能承載千年文化底蘊。德鐘壺「水為茶之母，壺為茶之父。」執此壺品茗，彷彿與古人對話，感受的不僅是茶香，更是那份「以德潤身」的東方智慧。
