Lion Head Export Teapot
Generation Tea
This pot was made to be exported in the
Dao Guang Period (1822-1850). The paste
(clay) is an interesting two tone mixture
of light purple and greyish clay. This
pot was never used and said to be found
at an old kiln sight. This pot was quite
desired when it was made (and now). Larger
size holding more than 500 ml also shows
its export status. Not many survived in
this perfect condition. A real beauty.
Seals on the bottom of the pot show a
simple flower pattern and Yixing, China.
Only $1,100.00
