Correct and incorrect :D

It is a pot from EoT, but it is not the 85ml No.1 Clay. It is the 85ml HuangLongShan clay pot ... for nearly 1/3 the price.

I have one too and love it, as it has paired really well with aged liu'an. It will soon be the only pot kept from my current collection, old or new.

Other pots coming to a TeaSwap near you? Feel free to PM me a heads up if/when that happens. :mrgreen:

So, after reading about this number thing under the lid, can someone elaborate more on what I am looking at under this lid? I was actually looking at trying to understand the number under the lid thing today and came across this thread. So, is it one or the other? I have a seal and number under this lid.

Hey, thanks for that bit. Your knowledge is always a blessing. I was curious what you mean by not very classical? Are you thinking the handle?

This is my fourth shui ping (they are growing on me!!!) and my second hong ni teapot. My other hong ni was made in 2011. This shui ping has so much gold fleck that I was actually shocked as none other of my teapots have such big and the quantity of gold flecks this feller has. So I am happy there's gold in there. ;)
