FS: Taiwan woodfired vs porcelain teapot set

by FBee » Jun 2nd, '19, 21:08

So, going through my stash of unused items, I came up with this – I think interesting and educational – offer:

Two teapots of very similar shape, yet in totally different materials, woodfired clay and porcelain. Both materials I have in the past found to be very good for high mountain oolong, yet still with different outcomes. So this set might offer a good setup for comparing different teas in different materials.

The volumes are not identical, yet not extremely far from each other to be too far apart. What I found matters a lot is the shape of a teapot and how thin/thick the walls are.

These two are both nearly identically thin walled.
TW pot: 150ml
Porcelain: closer to 190ml (my measuring glass is not super accurate)

Porcelain pot is in perfect condition, almost as new, used it a couple of times only.

TW pot has a replacement lid, which wiggles a bit sideways, yet is absolutely airtight, if water sealed. The lid's skirt inside is not perfectly round, due to some firing effect in the kiln. Does not affect performance. Some minor chips, as shown on images.

The set of two:
