Long Description
There was a blank business card in the teapot that had typewritten on it:
no. N31
Blue and White Chinese Teapot
Kang Hsi Period
1662-1723
There is a metal cap on the spout and the leaf mark on the bottom as pictured.
The value of this teapot to me is that is was a treasure to my friend who passed it along to me when she passed away, but I am interested in the history and age of it. I have tried to find information at my local library, on the internet, and at bookstores to no avail. Any information you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
History
I inherited this teapot from a friend. I think it was bought sometime before 1975 on the West Coast. O
