Clay is hong qing shui ni, late 70s.

Unless your lighting is really off, that does look nothing like Hongqingshuini… should be much lighter orangey

A key attribute of hqsn as I know is that it has shiny white spots. Is this the case for you?

Not a single one.
I'm not too sure about the white spots. Not that I bother, but I got a big kind of dark zini jar which is white spotted all over, and surely not hqsn, more like post 2020... sold for 90s.

That's not light orange by no mean. I'm just reporting what I've been informed of by an trusted expert.

Who is this trusted expert?

For the jar it is a French boutique.
For the pot, I don't want to create any issue to anyone, so if you allow I'd rather keep it unspoken.
The issue is all solved in good fairness and understanding.

Leo...
It's someone we all heard of.

If it doesn’t have silver mica spots it’s not HQSN. And the colour is not right either.

@olivierd this is how Hongqingshuini is supposed to look like: https://moodyguy.biz/70s-hongqingshuini ... g-yin.html

Might well not be. I'm really not seeing the mica inclusions, I'll re-check, but I'm pretty sure of it. And the color is quite the one of the pictures.

I know that one, it's been there for a while now. High priced.
Mine does not ressemble this at all. So we can conclude it might well not be HQSN.
