古往今來，愛壺的人不一定嗜茶，但嗜茶的人有十之八九都是鐘情于紫砂壺的。一把完美的紫砂壺，需要具備三個主要因素：包含：美好的形象結構、精湛的制作技巧、優良的實用功能。所謂形象結構，是指壺的嘴、扳、蓋、紐、腳，應與壺身整體比例協調。精湛的技藝，是評審壺藝優劣的準則。優良的實用功能，是指容積和重量的恰當，壺扳的便于執握，壺的周圓合縫，壺嘴的出水流暢。同時要考慮色地和圖案的脫俗和諧，如此才是充分展現“形、神、氣、態”的紫砂壺美形藝術。對愛壺者而言，首先觀察壺體的造型是否優美，有無作品個性，壺體結構搭配是否協調，這是關鍵。
From ancient times to modern times, people who love pot don't necessarily like tea, but nine out of ten people love teapot. A perfect red clay pot needs to have three main factors: beautiful image structure, exquisite production skills and excellent practical functions. The so-called image structure refers to the mouth, wrench, cover, button and foot of the pot, which should be coordinated with the overall proportion of the pot body. Exquisite craftsmanship is the criterion for judging the quality of pot art. The excellent practical function refers to the proper volume and weight, the convenient holding of the kettle wrench, the round seam of the kettle, and the smooth water flow of the kettle mouth. At the same time, we should consider the harmony between color and design, so as to fully show the beautiful shape art of "shape, spirit, gas and state". For those who love the pot, it is the key to first observe whether the shape of the pot is beautiful, whether there is a work personality, and whether the structure of the pot matches harmoniously.

從市場看，蔣蓉大師的著作——束柴三友壺在上世紀90年代中期就創下了不俗的成交紀錄。近兩年隨著藝術品商場的發展，紫砂藝術品的價值也越來越受到大家的重視，蔣蓉大師的著作不斷拍出新的紀錄，這也從市場的視點表達了大家對蔣蓉大師著作的價值認同。2000年以來，紫砂壺市場每隔3到5年會出現一個高點，最近一次為2011年。從2012年、2013年各大拍賣行的紫砂成交情況來看，紫砂壺行情還將繼續。作為近幾年的投資市場新寵，宜興紫砂壺就愈加給力，一件精品紫砂壺千萬元的高價不再罕見，一件紫砂壺價值幾百萬也不在少數。據行業相關專家預測，紫砂壺價格上升勢如破竹，而且這種態勢在未來至少可持續6
9年。在“紫砂七老”中，紫砂壺不光顧景舟作品屢創高價，與顧景舟大師同時代的蔣蓉、吳云根、朱可心、任淦庭、裴石民、王寅春等人的作品價值被嚴重低估，因此其未來具有極大的收藏價值和升值空間。
