Re: Yixing

Has anybody seen this style before? I only found a similar but not identical teapot in one of the Facebook groups. It does not have these yellow blossoms and the craftsmanship looks a bit more refined. ./download/file.php?id=5217 It shows up in F1 catalogues. Also there are many examples of this sh...

Re: Yixing

Balthazar This shape looks like a F1 design. I remember a while ago, I posted a pair of flat pots, and one of the members posted one that looked like yours. Edit: founded on page 37 Chadrinkcat linked a photo there First of all: I can't believe this thread has grown by 100 pages in a couple of mont...

@Bok

I assume it’s a famous marker. I’ll take a cheaper version w/o the seal and spend the difference on tea.

Wow, you drank out of a teapot bought from alixpress, and you are STILL ALIVE!!
Great video, though this might fool people that its safe to order teaware or anything else through them. :D
It’s a Yixing in name only. I’d rather use a $5 gaiwan

Re: Yixing

And at that pt, lqer zhuni is not far off, but of course, to each their own. Exactly. Those pots are sought after by collectors who want to have a more complete collection of early factory pieces... one needs to be aware of that. There is a reason you don't find them on offer. However, it's also tr...

And this one comes even closer: https://m.facebook.com/100004608287314/posts/pcb.2666304990308552/ Very useful group ;) Do you by any chance know a group that shows/sells genuine antiques? Then I could do a side by side comparison. I don’t know of groups or online resources for antique pots. Books ...

Mark-S https://m.facebook.com/groups/1515744082031321/?ref=group_browse You can view many examples of these replica/copy pots in this group. Nice, I did not know this group.

Re: What Pu'er Are You Drinking

03 Zipin and 08 Blue Mark are both excellent teas. Ive already consumed half a cake each so I’m seriously considering taking advantage of the 10% sale they are having right now. It seems like there are massive shipping delays right now so I’ll prob hold off until June right before the sale ends. I ...
