I believe that this teapot is antique unfortunately when I bought it it has already lost its lid
Thinking about making a replacement lid with silver. What do you think?
Small size: 1 cup
Single hole
Used by previous owner/s
A lidless teapot

Re: A lidless teapot
My guess would be a modern (80s+) chaozhou pot, due to the colors of the clay, especially since the inside clay seems to be of brighter color than the outside. I don't recognize the stamps at the bottom, but the way they are done also makes me think the pot is more modern than antique.
It's a got some nice lines, and a silver lid would certainly make it standout!
