Hey I don't know if this is bad etiquette, but didn't think this question needed a thread on its own. What's the difference between white label and green label. I'm very new to yixing btw.
Thanks. Yes I'd like a 160-180 ml if I could find a decent one. Seems that decent clay is hard to find

Green = Late 70's to early 80's
White = late 80's to early 90's

EOT has a number of pots in those sizes. Clay is also pretty decent on all of them.

This ones shape is nicer than the other. Clay should be same/similar on both.Shane wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2018 8:25 pmI was also looking at this one:Chadrinkincat wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2018 8:16 pm

Better clay on this one so I'd prob get this instead. It has a wonky knob though.

Yea that's what I was thinking. If I purchase a pot, I need to like it aesthetically as well.Chadrinkincat wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2018 8:35 pm

That pot is a good deal. Super wonky knobs and oversized lids that don't sit flat are 2 things I try to avoid when buying pots so I can totally understand why you'd pass on that one.Shane wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2018 9:18 pmYea that's what I was thinking.
