Alright, it’s a calm weekend day for me, so I’m back at it. Listing a few recently acquired pots including two Yixing and a Chaozhou. Many pictures to follow...

Note: Busy week ahead with couple work deadlines, so if these go quickly I likely won’t ship out towards end of week.

First up is a early 80s 63ml Shuiping NZWH. Zini clay inside, with Hongni coating on outside. Used several times.

For more teapot details and recommended tea pairings, please see MoodyGuy’s site: https://moodyguy.biz/80s-nzwh-shuiping.html

Asking $100 (purchased for $129)
FREE 2-day shipping to USA/Canada
$25 international shipping (please allow up to one week due to Customs)
FREE 40ml ROC blue line teacup ($23 value)
FREE 30g of tea (see further detail below)

NZWH with cup..

Next up is a 80ml Chaozhou I got from fellow TF member bok. It is an antique piece, supposedly late Qing, early ROC. It’s chipped up at lid skirt and spout, with a dark silver thumbprint smudge atop lid. Otherwise it’s a nice, unique looking piece. Never used.

Asking $125 (paid $154)
FREE 2-day shipping to USA/Canada
$25 international shipping (please allow up to one week due to Customs)
FREE 50ml ROC blue line teacup ($23 value)
FREE 30g of tea (see further detail below)

Another shot of cup..

Last up is a ROC 145ml ZiNi Bale, a very recent pickup from MoodyGuy. See nice picture of it here:
Looks to be only ROC he has sold so far, I convinced him to sell to me. But I’ve come to realize the antiques are just not for me, a bit too old for my personal taste.

Asking $500 even (paid $599)
2 FREE 62ml late Qing celadon cups (valued at $86/each x 2 = ~$172 value)
FREE 2-day shipping to USA/Canada
$25 international shipping (please allow up to one week due to Customs)
FREE 30g of tea (see further detail below)

ROC with Qing cups...

and the NZWH has been spoken for..

Well, that was quick!

..and CZ pot now reserved

One to go..

...and ROC also now on reserve.

Mods - will let you know once sold so you can put a lock on it.

CZ is back up for grabs.

CZ going once, going twice, and...

Reserved once again.

As promised, I said I would give tea details below. Just divided up all teas. Throwing in 30g of couple teas plus this one I took pictures of as in original packaging, Chawang Shop’s 2021 Chawangpu Jinggu Lao Shu Zhuan 400g. Broke up this one evenly between the four of us...

Not sure why I can’t edit previous post.

Anyhow, found related IG post by Honza...

Looks like my countertop!

As requested, here is the full tea lineup!

The Chawangpu (see above)


1993-4 Sichuan Ya´an TF "Jin Jian" Tibetan Brick 50g

See review, apparently dank, haha. May need some airing out!
This Tibetan tea was meant for our church Bishop, but I decided to share amongst us.

Lastly, I am splitting my stash of Temi Estate 2023 First Flush First Picking. If you haven’t yet seen thread, you can read more about it in advance here (hope you share your thoughts):

Leo found the source, I was brought in as haggler. Here is nice picture of Nalin in tasting action! I believe we may go in for Second Flush come June if any interest out there...

I'm super excited to try that Darjeeling! While skimming your posts, I briefly confused that Jinggu Lao Shu Zhuan with Fu Zhuan, which is a tea I've actively avoided trying. What a relief it's shu puerh—and a fruity one at that!
