Re: Yixing

Mark-S An example of a LQER neizhiwaihong pot. https://m.facebook.com/groups/1429378320690167?view=permalink&id=1796660027295326 here is another one ;) ./download/file.php?id=5399 ./download/file.php?id=5400 I finally got a NZWH pot with similar shape + era (unless I’m mistaken). I think I prefer t...

Re: Yixing

The Yixing pot look legit old or at the very least a high quality replica. Clay looks different than my pot.

The smaller CZ pot sold for way more than it should have so someone almost certainly thought it was Yixing. These normally sell for less than a $100.

Re: Yixing

Bok Thanks for chiming in on this one! I thought the clay looked quite similar to a couple of the mid Qing pots from ZAG but I went with a more conservative date because the other butterfly themed pots I came across were dated late 1800’s. Clay looks different than my Fuji zhuni pot which make sens...

Re: Yixing

Any thoughts on this pot? I was told by 2 fellow collectors that is indeed Qing. One suggested Daoguang era zhuni.

Darbotek Looks like early 80s Neiziwaihong, should be a good pot to use.

Laughing at the egg on Helotea’s face is less entertaining these days.

Re: Yixing

Chadrinkincat: even cracked, it looks like it was a bargain. I admire your ability to find these things on ebay of all places, and to take pleasure out of gambles like this. If you don't mind my asking, where do you get staple repairs (or kintsugi repairs) done? I've heard of Nissan Haque who I thi...

Re: Yixing

@Bok
Thanks! The crack is definitely a bummer. I’d imagine it would require at least 3-4 staples because it starts on the rim and ends just above base rim.

@Andrew S
Nice pot! The lines are very elegant on this one. Zhuni and yancha sounds like a good match.

Re: Yixing

The gamble arrived today. The pot is indeed early 60’s but unfortunately I was wrong about the crack being a scratch. Luckily it is on the back side so it’ll display nice until I get around to fixing it.

Re: Yixing

I feel like I need to counterbalance all these GIANT pots everyone is posting. Here is my latest Yixing gamble based on super blurry photos. It looks to be the smaller sized xian piao from early 60’s. You can see a very faint mark under lid which is probably 線漂 seal. It also appears to have origina...

This looks like a nice pot but it doesn’t look like F1 to me either. I vaguely remember someone else posting (here or on TC) a very similar pot from Jing which was late 90-00’s. That would be my guess for this one too.
Nevermind, Jing listed it as early 90’s so I assume this is same pot.
