My new pot!

So this beauty just arrived from Taiwan.
Its a modern zhuni/hongni (whatever you feel comfortable with :D ) with thin walls and a round belly that will brew my high mountain oolongs.
Besides just showing off, Its important to say how grateful I am for this community from which I learned so much. I'm especially grateful to Steanze whose generous and invaluable assistance in the last weeks helped me make better choices and avoid the worse ones (he doesn't know but he in fact chose it! ha ha).

I would have chosen a thin porcelain gaiwan to be honest :) but you really wanted a pot. This one should work quite well with gaoshan

Where'd you buy it from? This style is one of my favorite teapot shapes.

Purchased from Stéphane Erler. But I’m afraid he had just one of those.
