Wasn’t that in connection with that teapot set and two cups?
But it’s true the demands of Asian collectors in regards to perfection of item are much higher in Asia. But people are also willing to pay the price for it...

Excellent, thank you for the insight!
Some exquisite taste you got there... be prepared to empty your account Gong ju is a lovely style of pot, been searching for one that is affordable for a looooong time.TeaTotaling wrote: ↑Tue May 19, 2020 2:25 pmThis antique Zini really caught my eye as well! In current discussion, and hot pursuit, of this beauty. I personally love the middle ground qualities of Zini, as compared to other clays.
@TeaTotaling nice pot. @Chadrinkincat has the same pot, but i think his is green label if not mistaken.TeaTotaling wrote: ↑Tue May 19, 2020 2:00 pm
This 80’s Duan Niyi, as it’s labeled, seems quite nice. Not exactly antique per se, but a good option I was considering.
Understood. I have been saving for a quality investment, and I believe I have found it. You are right, Gong Ju is a beautiful style, very refined.Bok wrote: ↑Tue May 19, 2020 7:04 pmSome exquisite taste you got there... be prepared to empty your account Gong ju is a lovely style of pot, been searching for one that is affordable for a looooong time.TeaTotaling wrote: ↑Tue May 19, 2020 2:25 pmThis antique Zini really caught my eye as well!

Be aware though that antique Duanni has little in common with the contemporary one.
I'm sure you know this, but take note that its 150ml, which is a bit big for me personally. That pot caught my eye too, but at that size It would mostly just collect dust.TeaTotaling wrote: ↑Tue May 19, 2020 8:10 pmUnderstood.

How would you describe the affects of antique Duanni? I have no experience with either. I have been more hesitant to go for contemporary Duanni.
As always, thank you for your honest insight.
Thanks! I haven’t committed to this one just yet. I have another red pot I might choose over this one. It is certainly very nice though. I would be curious to hear how@Chadrinkincat likes it!OCTO wrote: ↑Tue May 19, 2020 7:57 pmTeaTotaling nice pot.
