Re: testing the waters in clay (seeking advice)

Those pots from TTC are made in Taiwan from non yixing clay hence lower price than typical true yixing. Imho that clay looks pretty mediocre. Your better off spending that $30-50 on a used pot from this forum or teachat.

Re: Yixing

NOS early 70’s 100ml Xian Piao with original wax coating. Truly high fired Hong ni. Should prob use this for balled oolong but it’ll likely get used for puerh instead since that what I mostly drink.
