Looks ok, slightly expensive, but maybe worth it if you like that style.

No idea about the shop but the price is slightly expensive for Taobao service. Same pot is offered in Dragon House with three teacups:

More expensive in here since Dragon House plays with a wider audience.

Sorry for not being more helpful.

The shop has a good rating. Their Ru Kiln pieces are mass produced by a company in Taiwan. I have sold their pieces in the past, but they are just cookie cutter pieces, with each piece identical to the next, so I stopped carrying them. If you are interested in more affordable Ru Kiln tea ware though, they are decent. I haven't bought from that particular store, but most shops will lower their prices a bit.

Could you recommend me another vendor? More artistic.

I haven't bought Ruyao pieces on Taobao, so I just did a quick search for you. Here are a couple suggestions. I haven't bought from them, so I can't say more than; they look ok. Their pieces are decent and not in the high range. I hope this helps.

IPT is following the forum rules by not recommending his own shop :mrgreen: ... so I will for him.

Each selection includes the artisan's name and I am sure he could also tell you a little about each artisan as well.

Hi zemlemer,

Write to Vova about your ideas. Hope he can give you some advice.
I know he and his Chinese wife runs a Taobao Assistant website. They also have tea section.

By the way, they are in Ukraine :)) you can write email to ask his phone number.

Check their site: xoposho There is Russian version too.

Good luck.
