Hello Lam,
As a local folk in the very center of origin circle,
USD 89 is definately not sufficient to buy teapot of real OLD purple clay.
Please don't mind about the circle(The trace on bottom ) if you mean this. most of teapots claiming hand-made ones have it.
The background lighting tune on the picture disables closer look. I can't see clearly on the surface textile. but it (with overseas business costs added)worthes what you paid for.
enjoy!
