The Yixing teapot takes various natural and object forms seen in daily life and designs them into teapots shapes through artistic techniques. The rules of this teapot art form are "derived from nature, but higher than nature, with the design not only having moderate artistic exaggeration, but also being intentionally stylish." Therefore, the Yixing teapot should not only have vivid imagery and simple composition, but also cleverly utilize the natural color of the Yixing clay material to enhance its artistic effect.

The design of the Palace Lamp "Gongdeng" in the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty. Its prototype was a lantern, designed by an old man from Tuntou Village. Later, the Tuntou Lantern was presented as a tribute to a county-level official who took it to the palace. The Tuntou Lantern was named "Gongdeng" and became an exclusive item for the imperial palace. Later, people replaced the character "Gong" with "Palace," and it became the "Palace Lamp" we know today. The Palace Lamp teapot is designed based on this lantern, often appearing in a square shape with a fresh, natural, and elegant style that is in line with the aesthetic views of ancient people and easily accepted by modern people.
