Another fine example of a pot marked "ZhongGuoYiXing". One may almost always count on good clay, as here. Good craftsmanship, and good spirit come along with them as well. And in this case, some wonderful decoration, with artwork reminding of WuChangshuo or FuHua. While I like the FangGu shape, the flat profile is more difficult to hold, in larger pots, but in this "miniature", XiaoCai form, it's just perfect in the hand. Very happy!
