This pot had been on eBay recently. The teapot looks like F1 to me. Have you seen this box before? How old is this pot? The factory one boxes I know look different.

And this is another interesting teapot from eBay. It was sold twice, so maybe there is something wrong with it. I would love to hear your opinions on it. It has the same strange color on the rim of the lid as my top handle teapot. If I remember correctly, you said that my teapot would be made of NZWH clay.

I remember seeing a blog post about this specific shape and box combo being an export to SEA in the 80’s or 90’s.

Interesting, I searched for about an hour and did not find anything. Thanks!Chadrinkincat wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 3:21 pmMark-S

And what do you think of the other pot? Is it neiziwaihong? Or how do you explain the color of the rim?
You think so? To me it looked a lot like the lid of my teapot, but it is hard to take a similar picture of it.

The xian piao doesn’t look nzwh to me. Pot seems a bit weird
@Chadrinkincat I think many useful sites are in Chinese. Unfortunately, I only speak Google Translator Chinese.

My newest aquisition The craftsmanship is not perfect, but the design is very beautiful in my opinion. Could be F1, but I am not sure.

Could be legit 90’s period. Quite a few examples on this FB group for comparison.

I found this Facebook post too, and one of the members said that there are many decent imitations of this teapot. These points let me question its authenticity:Chadrinkincat wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 10:48 amMark-S

1. The craftsmanship is good but also not perfect. There is a dent on one side, and the shape is not symmetrically. The design is not that simple though.
2. There are only 2 seals on my pot.
3. Every teapot of this design I could find online was not part of a set.
