"Leopard"
- 5 ounces (~1 cup)
This artisan teapot is a fascinating abstract representation
of the wild leopard, an original design from Xiao Ma who
has taken extra fine zisha clay and used an inlay technique to
create the trademark spots of the feline. Details
are then added to define each spot and to create shadows around
the spout and 'tail' handle. A lucky Chinese coin is carved
into the knob on the lid. Mr. Ma's chop mark appears on
the base and inside the lid.
