AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An antique Chinese Yixing Zisha teapot dating to the Qing Dynasty, featuring an elaborate prunus tree trunk design and bearing the mark of Jingming (景铭), a Qing Dynasty Yixing potter.
The teapot is beautifully modelled in reddish-brown Zisha clay, with a cylindrical body decorated with applied prunus branches and blossoms. The spout, handle and lid finial are all fashioned to resemble natural tree branches, creating a harmonious and highly decorative design.
The underside bears a square seal mark reading “宜兴紫砂茶壶” (Yixing Zisha Teapot), while the interior of the lid bears a gourd-shaped seal reading “景铭” (Jingming).
The combination of these two marks is also recorded on other Qing Dynasty Yixing teapots attributed to Jingming.

* Weight: 395 g
Condition:
Antique condition with age-related wear. There is a chip to the rim of the lid, and some losses to the applied decorative elements on the body. Please examine the photographs carefully for full details of the condition.
