The teapot [above] is literally smothered in traditional motifs and figural scenes. It is a high quality item that
although highly traditional, has many individualist elements that make it stand out from the crowd. The spout is
particularly elegant; the continuous ruyi frieze skirted base an entirely appropriate addition.!
T h e p a i r o f
reticulated
baskets with birds
flying in and out of
the bamboo foliate
motif are superbly
elegant and well
executed.!
