Where can I get a tiny yixing pot?

[rabbit]

I hate having large cups of tea these days... the more I learn to enjoy my tea and steep properly the smaller my infusions seem to get But my problem is that the only yixing pots I have are around 180ml and up.

I've seen pictures of very small yixing teapots on this forum and I'm wondering where I can find one?

[edit] Preferably purple clay and a very simply design.

40ml small enough?

I'd love one but my wife would kill me.

Stéphane's got a nice little 80ml pot, I imagine it will a good deal more affordable than $290 but you'll need to email him for a price.

I got a pot from him several years ago and I love it.

Jing Tea Shop has sold small pots at reasonable prices. They're on vacation in Europe until early July, if you can wait. Email them and hopefully they can turn something up for you.

Aroma Teahouse in Vancouver (Canadian branch of Lam Kie Yuen) has some decent small pots that are less than $60 CAD. Most are shui ping shape. They don't have product listings for them on the site, so you'd have to call or email.

Pots around 100 ml or so are pretty easy to get. Smaller can be a little bit harder.

Plenty of existing threads about the same topic, for example:

Try Dragon Tea House on ebay, they have several ZhuNi at 40-55mL, and a couple of purple clay around that as well.

Victoria,
Do you mind sending me a photo of the pot as well? Rabbit should of course have first dibs. Of course I already have too many teapots, but you know how that goes....

[Victoria]

I do know how that goes, oddly enough
Humm not as small as it looks. It is actually
150ml.

Dragon Tea House has had a few 40-55ml pots lately, though I'm not sure if there were any zi ni. Mostly modern zhuni I think. Around $50 if memory serves correctly. [Edit: Oops. I missed Shigaraki's post above. Same info. ]

Now... as an owner of a couple pots from Mandarin's Tea Room, allow me to say they are the best pots I've ever owned. If you are in to high fire TGY, they can't be beat.
