Yixing
Hello all,
I have been gifted a pear shaped teapot, which I believe is some kind of yixing.
The lady that gave it to me,got it from a family member that deals in antiques.
Can anyone tell me something about it, what does the stamps/maker marks say?
Looking forward solving the mystery

Cool with some info. The craftsman ship is nothing special, handle and sprout is not aligned, the ball on the lid is also offcenter

@Teaups
I'm pretty sure that looks like a ChaoZhou Pot and not a Yixing Pot. Do you have another Yixing pot that you can compare to? CZ clay should be more porous and weight lighter than Yixing clay.
Cheers!
Memory is a fickle thing and dates can be misremembered easily.
In any case the workmanship does definitely not suggest it to be antique. Vintage at best.
Hello TeaForum group,
I am new to this forum. I hope I have started by posting in the correct section!
Like many of you I love teapots. I have seen some unusual tea pots of late and wonder if anyone can share information on a particular style design. I would be interested to get an idea of age, origin and maker. Ultimately value of this please.
