@tjkdubya ("Then promptly come back to life and buy it.") Good one!
re: heft and thickness of brewing vessel, the answer is always "depends" on the tea you want to brew with it. High-fired yancha's and rolled oolongs...thicker. Dancong and qingxiang style oolongs, I'd say light(er) and thin(ner). Having said that, thin or thick, light or heavy,...whatever tea is in it you can always adapt by making necessary adjustments. Understanding the tea you are brewing is first and foremost is what I'm trying to say, and everything else is adaptable.
A friend once gifted me a nice dancong that cost some pretty pennies -- something around $25-30/g. His brewing suggestion for me is unforgettable: "It's good tea, don't f**k it up." That's it.

Bok If I saw a smaller one I'd probably die. Then promptly come back to life and buy it. This one I was eyeballing at about 50ml max.
For the ultra-small size brewing Chaozhou style, generally speaking, is the heft/thickness of the brewing vessel tending towards heavier side? Or lighter? Or is it of no significant consequence to the techniques/aims of the CZGF?
