Sorry for the delay, I was assisting with a workshop all weekend. This is as color-true as it gets. My monitor and photo-editing are color calibrated, but your monitor might vary.

You can see that the pot is not green. However, when in certain lights it does certainly have a greenish cast. As mentioned though, when holding the pot up to the monitor and YSLLC's picture, it looks exactly the same color. Interesting.

Green is my favorite color, and I was a bit disappointed at first to get this pot and discover that it is more tan, without the green tones in most lighting. But now I have been using it, and it's a pretty sweet little inexpensive pot.

That is a sweet pot, Geek!

Green is my fave color as well. I am looking for a special green cup right now.

I have had similar color disappointments and it makes me happy to know that only a select few (prolly just me ... but that's pretty select) can see the secret color that I know is there.

Yep thats how mine look, yours color might be a little lighter, but its hard to judge without seing it in reality.

Functionality wise its awesome. The guy that made it must be quite skilled.

ye it was the same shape

but the guy is holding different kind of teapots.. so i gues its not him who made this exact pot, hes just affiliated. Thx for clarification.

btw. i was able to easily break of the piece that was sticking out after using the pot a few times :)
