I'm wondering if anyone has seen this type of teapot and when it was made.
Looks like Mao, but I'm not sure. Can we get a translation of the markings?

I don't think Factory #1 (as most of Yixing came from that factory during the CR) has ever made a pot like that

Yeah, it's weird. The bottom seal is a Yixing seal, but what does the rectangular seal underneath it say?chrl42 wrote:I don't think Factory #1 (as most of Yixing came from that factory during the CR) has ever made a pot like that

Kyarazen, can it be from the period? Have you seen others? Or, is this just another creation of recent times? Just curious.kyarazen wrote:Tead Off wrote:Yeah, it's weird.
