note the square bottom as opposed the general round shape of the pot. a not so common thing :

this guy must be 80 ml or less, have not measured the volume yet. plan to drink a very expensive tky with this, perfect for a lonesome tea drinker that i am.

amazing tea pot...absolutely beautiful....enjoy mate..

It's a real beauty. You realize of course that we all have to know right now where you got it. It's amazing how often those tiny pots come in handy!

got this from my local yi xing seller here in the outskirts of toronto. the dude uses nothing but small yi xing pots. whenever i come to his store, we sit down, sip on some tky and start to talk about the good old days......

he has another one by the same maker but he put it aside for another tea nut like us. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
Cute pot! Where in Toronto? I visit Toronto from time to time and would love to see the shop!

I went teaware shopping today. My requirements: a) glazed or glass, b) small, c) cups must have handles. The Asian markets I went to couldn't meet that last requirement, so I decided to try Target.

I know it's not fancy, but it was cheap and I'm pleased.
