Re: Yixing
Old siblings, re-united. The one at the back is welcoming the two at the front (one of whom is currently drinking some yancha). I'll have to play with the 'new' ones more once I've got more time. Even though it's an 'ordinary' shape, I still think the humble shuiping is one of my favourites. Andrew...

Re: looking for any info on the quality/authenticity of this pot. Thanks a lot!!
Funny it comes from the very same vendor from whom you've already got one very similar modern pot in the past. Good that you've asked early this time.

Re: Yixing
Is it really polished? Or is it patina? Shape make me think of other local Indonesian yixing imitations I’ve seen before. Can be still old though.
