by Alexandra

Hello,
I have this lovely teapot but i have no idea when it was made. It has got markes, one to the base and one inside the lid. Could you please help me to identify it?

Many thanks,

Alexandra

They are, but they are written in an archaic style we cannot read. That is often the case with seal type marks on items other than porcelain.

Thank you for your comment!
I am not sure that characters in the mark are chinese...

Looks as if it is. However, I have never seen an Yixing teapot like this, though.
We cannot read the characters in the mark, I'm afraid.
