Came across this teapot on EBay today. It looks great but I must resist. I need to save my money for tea.

I have to chime in here. Fishies! Totally outside my budget, sadly. :)

Any idea how much the cups hold on the one you linked?

SarsyPie said

yyz: Holy crap. Did not even see those. They’re gorgeous!

Marz: Not sure. I hate it when they are vague about volume. I usually just send a message. Most sellers reply quickly. I found some great stuff searching for “carp teapots” and “carp teacups”

www.dragonteahouse.biz is the same company. I don’t know about their aliexpress site but their .biz site is 10% cheaper than their EBay site because they are not paying fees. You can probably get it cheaper there. You just have to create an account and log in to get the discount. They offer free shipping and its pretty fast. They are willing to split big orders into two shipments to ship them faster. Above 2 kg in one package would be SAL I think. They use E Packet in smaller shipments. I have one in transit now, a cha hai and 100g black tea.

I have been eyeing a gaiwan, I think it’s the same price on both sites.

AllanK said

If the gaiwan is the same price on both sites you either did not register with dragonteahouse.biz or you didn’t sign in. The 10% discount doesn’t show up unless you sign in.

Here are two beautiful teapots from my favorite EBay teapot seller. I have bought about 5 yixing teapots from her and one set of yixing cups. She packages everything very well and always includes a nice fabric padded gift box with her more expensive teapots. She includes a wrap with all of her teapots.

Very cute! It’s not tea Sil!

Sil select said

true but it’s a little pricy at the moment..but so awesome.

yyz said

True, I didn’t look at the price. It’s very awesome though!

Wow, thanks for posting the link allan….she’s got beautiful stuff. But thank god most of her pots are a little big for me, cause that could be a very dangerous place for me!!!

This though….

They’re cool looking. But they also remind me of candy dishes in some of my older relatives houses from the late 60’s and 70’s.

Haha! Now that’s all I can think of!! I think it’s the colour, I saw a similar style in a different colour and it was totally different. Thanks for saying this, i don’t feel like having them anymore ;-)

yyz said

Sorry! I think.

No!! It’s totally fine, I need more people to do this for me :-o

yyz said

I love how that store allows you to search by theme though.

They are so pretty! They don’t look comfortable to drink from though.

Now I want all these things! I always end up liking the things you post on this thread. That sea urchin cup is fantastic! I love the rabbit set too.

:D If I wasn’t in bed I’d be in trouble… Adding to my holiday wishlist. ;)

darby select said

You are SO bad!!! I just had to add that last seller to my favorites….I need a sea urchin cup!

I bought a washi tin from a stash sale here on Steepster, and I love it! I would definitely buy more of them. :)

cookies said

Does it seem durable? They’re having a sale right now and these might just be too pretty to pass up.

I’m not sure where mine came from originally, but it seems pretty solid. The inner lid is different from those ones.

I have always wanted tea tins like those, still they cost here like 20e per tin.
