do you mean "shui ping pot"?
like the pic below?
it is an old style, most famous artist didn't make the shui ping teapot, becase it is the most easy style and low price.
only some Junior artist make it now.

Yes, this was mentioned in one of the first posts, she wants to know what type of pot 'Americans' like. I noticed in her posts she was directed to the forum rules.

Moderator Post: Pardon the interuption.
Chen and I have been discussing forum rules via PM's. The information below is
not directed towards Chen who already is aware of this information.
Since this has come up more and more lately, while it is
not permitted for a vendor to sell on TeaChat either through posts or through PMing members on a first contact basis, members are certainly allowed to contact vendor members if interested in either information or purchasing. The direction of the initial contact is member to vendor, not the other way around!
If a vendor makes a first contact through a PM to you or even if you see too much salesmanship in a post, please notify a moderator immediately.
Thanks
blah blah blah SENCHA blah blah blah!!!
