Are you asking us for permission?

that was a nice pot!
there's the same one in this post
http://www.teachat.com/viewtopic.php?f= ... 80#p275480
and these 4 pots, if you're able to get a chance to see them in person, is extremely instructive.
the left being ben shan lv ni, followed by 60s jia-zi-ni (茄，not 甲), followed by 50-60s hongni, and then 60s Ben Zini~

Sorry, I know it's not relevant but I can't figure out how to post a new thread. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!

The spout looks much darker than the body, is it the lighting or is it actually that much darker?

That Jing Xi seal was used no later than the CR..then the clay shouldn't be #4 mine, rather #1,2,3 mines..and #1,2,3 mines were continuous mines of the ROC period...that clay indeed looks very much like ROC Zhima (sesame) Duanni

吐黑 happen often to those pots dug from cemetery. The spooky black verticle lines often appear when the pot is use to brew tea. It is hard to rub off but there ways to do it. I am curious if the ben shan lini 吐黑 is the same or different type of vomit

From what I know, there's no way to remove Tu Hei blots..Tu Hei happens when the pot isn't fired high enough, that Duanni/Lvni tends to be so sandy that requires higher temp to fire than other clays. And it happens to some Zini, too.
I think if those blots can be removed, then it must not be Tu Hei blot but just low-fired. I also heard excavation pots should be low-fired.
