As the title says…
Got this a while back from one of my tea sources. Clay is nice, but not pure Zhuni, at least a good portion seems to be Hongni. All in all pretty nice clay.
I took this pot to an acquaintance and together we puzzled out that due to the seal chops it’s a potter who was active in Yixing in the 90s which would match what the seller told me about it’s approximate age. I did not take note but can decipher the characters again if need be…
Volume is 150ml, tight lid fit(not that it matters), well crafted and pours a nice stream without making a mess without any practice with this pot.
It’s been well used by myself with a wide range of teas, mostly Taiwanese teas. From my experience it handles as expected and is a pretty neutral, leaning towards Zhuni brewer. Meaning it doesn’t take anything from the tea, but it also doesn’t do it any favours if the teas has faults. An all round workhorse-teapot.
On request I can give it a bath and reset it. Handle wrap is optional of course.
Price is 5500TWD, including EMS shipment (where that is still possible).
An queries, let me know.
