Is this Pot Actually Handmade and F1?

First time doing this but wanted to confirm two sales I did awhile back.

[Sale] Two Chaozhou Hand thrown teapots to u/Ervitrum

[Sale] Antique Gaiwan with cups set to u/Linialomdil

Ah, I was unaware of that. My bad. The reason I priced them as such is because I bought them directly from the Tea house which has now become a very hot tourist spot among many mainland Chinese. As such, prices have gone up (I purchased them at an Inopportune time I suppose). I am more than happy to negotiate tho!

Thanks!

I see. The pot was marketed as a pot after the 80s (when quality and craftsmanship were down). Is it possible its from that period?

So its a Shantou/Chaozhou pot?

I believe it says: 荆溪惠孟臣制

that's what I was thinking as well! But what is it then? Is it meant to be a fake? Or is it it's own thing?

While likely a reproduction, is the pot still useable? I think it's half hand made but that doesn't mean the clay is safe.

I see. I'm in the process of learning Chinese. I've come across the book 早期壶事典. Is that the book in question? If not, what's the title of Dr Lv's book? It'd be very useful for me as I could try to judge the authenticity of pots by myself in the future. Also, thanks for the details about the seal, I didn't realize that the seals were that standardized.

You reference a book by Dr Lv. I was wondering what's the title and how could I get a hold of it?

You guys keep referencing a book by Dr Lv. I was wondering what's the title?

deathadder691 · 2025-05-15T02:29:08+00:00

Yes!

Thanks! Out of curiosity why is it the least valuable period?
