Subject:Yixing Teapot
Posted By: Kevin Donnelley Fri, Mar 29, 2019 IP: 173.2.101.95
Hello,
This small teapot is a recent addition to my collection of Yixing pots. And, I chose this one for its smooth and symmetrical contours of the profile.
There is one hole at the base of the spout inside. The lid fits somewhat loosely to the base, other than that I found no problems with it.
I am hoping one of the experts may be able to translate the calligraphy for me and possibly provide a date range if undated by the artist.
Thank you for looking
L:(spout to handle) 5 3/8"; 13.7cm
Kind regards
Kevin
