Others here are more qualified to speak to the quality of the clay... all I can tell you for certain is that the picture is upside-down... :D

The chop is Wei Guojun. The lines on the two sides, one says pure zisha, and one says Wei Feng Tang, the studio name of this person. The clays looks nice. :D

Here is a close up of the clay and the teapot itself. Perfect lid fit & very nice pour. I'm going to use it for TGY.
