Chinese Qianjiang Cai Teapot Dated 1912

It was clearly produced as a custom-made presentation piece, with inscriptions identifying both the recipient and the artist responsible for its decoration, adding considerable historical and documentary interest.
The combination of figure painting, poetry, calligraphy, and personal dedication makes this a highly collectible example of early 20th-century Chinese literati porcelain.
