Authentic Vintage Signed Yixing Zisha Teapot – New Old Stock with Documentation
A exceptional, large-format vintage Yixing "Purple Sand" (Zisha) clay teapot dating from the late 20th-century export era (circa 1980s–1990s). This piece is in pristine New Old Stock (NOS) condition, remaining completely unused and unseasoned, and comes complete with its original importer paperwork from the China Cultural Center Inc. (CCCI).
Artistry & Provenance:
Verified Maker: Features the hand-impressed square seal mark on the base belonging to recognized Yixing factory craft artist Zhou Gen Ti (周根梯).
Dual Stamped: Features both the individual artist's chop mark and the official "CCCI" export stamp, confirming its authenticity and era.
Surface Details: Beautifully decorated with a hand-etched traditional Chinese "Shan Shui" (Mountain & Water) landscape scene on one side and fluid poetic calligraphy on the reverse.
Design & Functionality:
Measuring a substantial 8 inches from spout to handle, this piece is significantly larger than standard personal Gongfu teapots, making it a functional serving pot for small gatherings as well as a striking display centerpiece. Authentic unglazed Zisha clay is celebrated for its porous nature, which absorbs tea oils and enhances flavor over time.
Condition Report:
Mint vintage condition with zero chips, cracks, hairline fractures, or repairs. The clay retains its original smooth matte patina. Includes original descriptive paper insert.
