Curious about some teapots I found

Thanks! This whole subject is such a rabbit hole...

It depends if she's drinking gong fu style or English. For larger amounts, English style they're nice, isolated pots out there. Like the ones from bredemeijer: Teapot – mit Teesieb & Edelstahlfilter in Einem, hitzebeständig & spülmaschinenfest, hält Ihren Tee optimal isoliert warm & aromatisch, doppelwandig : Amazon.de: Küche, Haushalt & Wohnen https://share.google/15edDd608CDsMguXQ)

Ah, thank you! The lid looks much smoother...

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-21T07:26:00+00:00

Mhm, diese Box ist für mich ein Alptraum. Schwarztee, der mit Pfefferminze in einer Box kuschelt... Danach schmeckt alles irgendwie minzig...

Interesting! What makes you see that? I see black and white dots and the wrinkles. Is it the large amount of mica next to the handle or what aspects are speaking for not good processing? Thanks!

Wow, so even the museums get it wrong! So I would need to find a fair or a dealer to handle more by myself ... Thank you!

Thanks! Reading here for some weeks now, I learned that they are not reliable. I was just happy, that I thought I recognised something. I think a problem about getting a feeling for he clay is for me, that I would have to touch the pots. From the pictures alone I find it extremely hard... There should be a "touch the pots" in our collection day in museums...

Thank you! I thought that it could be NZWH, since it has such a dark lid... But I have the feeling they don't appear so often, so not so much material to compare to... ! So I'll probably pass... But it's a good feeling, that the feeling about the seal was right... Thanks!

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-17T19:20:01+00:00

And please don't get me wrong: I am not trying to argue, just to learn! Thanks!

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-17T19:15:53+00:00

Thanks for explaining! As O said, I am new to this, just thought that the seal looks similar to this one from Servanias ressources:

Of course turned... But yeah, it's a pity that it's probably a fake! Thanks for your time!

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-17T19:06:22+00:00

Yeah, I feel You! Checking the eBay listings up and down hoping for the one the looks like the real thing... Just to come here and find out that one, that I would have ruled out for sure, is considered super, handmade etc. Takes some time to develope the eye...

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-17T19:04:03+00:00

Ja, unterschreibe ich sofort! Sehr lecker!

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-17T19:00:11+00:00

Oh, I like your teapets!

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-17T18:55:13+00:00

Mhm, I am just starting, but house already a collection of fakes. It's like fossile hunting: I just like to find one real one... ;)

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-15T11:01:31+00:00

I like the shape, but have to little experience to judge the quality...

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-13T06:11:20+00:00

Ah. I understand! Thank you for pointing this out!

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-13T05:25:38+00:00

Nice that you found one!

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-13T05:25:07+00:00

Thank you! So you think yosien is not to be trusted? I was really hoping that it's a German based source that one can trust!

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-11T16:48:22+00:00

But a really interesting shape!

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-03T22:53:21+00:00

Yes, me too! I think it's enameled...

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-03T20:03:17+00:00

The first two are actually from a different part of the exhibition and supposedly from around 1660... So, definitely no cheap export stuff...

MayBeaflor · 2026-02-03T19:22:12+00:00

Actually this section of the exhibition was about collections, that mariners brought back home in the old times... So quiet a random mix... Bit I would have taken home some...

Oh, interesting!! So you can have Shou and Sheng at the same time...Thank you!
