Going through my storage of neglected stash of teapots and those following did not make it into the rotation :mrgreen:
All unused as they they were given to me rather than that I bought them. Not used by me as I just have too many other pots I preferred to use (sound familiar? :mrgreen: )

First one and in my opinion the nicest of the lot: According to public opinion in the other forum back in the days it is an after 90ies (厂外定制)Outside factory custom made pot.
Bare with me for capacity, I need to check that and wil update the listing.

Craftsmanship is quite nice and clay seems to be as well.
Price 80 USD+ shipping

Second pot is the smallest I ever had, 60ml. Consenus had it around 90ies. High fired and it has a nice ring to it!

Caveat: This pot did not fare well in my test brewing with high mountain oolong! I found it had muting effect.
This might be down to being un-seasoned, some clays seem to need longer raising time, before they perform well. I did not have the patience and the handle is uncomfortably small for my rather large paws… Otherwise it might be a good fit for young sheng or other teas which benefit from a little muting. I do not drink those, so this pot is not useful for me…

Third one is another likely 90ies or later: this one imitating pre-1960s nan meng chen pot, as deducted by our local Yixing sage, Steanze :mrgreen:
I have to measure capacity, but it is only a bit larger than the second pot, so an educated guess would put it somewhere in the 70-80ml range. TBC

It is well made nonetheless and has quite a nice shape.
