Subjective list of modern yixing teapot vendors/sources

Disclaimer: this is my own try at a list with comments from my (and others) experience.

Mud & Leaves Mud and Leaves pots, they are quite simple and the clay is good but personally i find most of them lack a quirk hence why i prefer yinchen.

Yinchen Studio Very friendly vendor who have their own studio and sell pots that have some quirk about them, i can recommend them, the clay quality is imo quite good with some people actually stating that they think their clay is one of the best for the price.

Essence of Tea Sells unique handmade pots aswell as having a range of standard shaped teapots with good clay, same as mud and leaves i'd say. clay over quirks or aesthetics, staying minimalistic.

Yann Art Gallery The artistic approach which can range from entry level (like 100$) pots with good clay and ones that you have to ask the price for. clay quality, craftsmanship and aesthetics are in the foreground here, but for a price $$$.

Chawangshop They occasionally have pretty great teapots in their repertoire, one of my fave zini pots is from there, though their restocking is quite rare.

Teaswelike Teaswelike who are already well-liked in the community for their puerh offerings are also offering vintage/antique teapots aswell as newly made ones of high quality that come with an EDXRF certificate showing the chemical composition. they don't have that many teapots but they ones they have are quite great and beloved.

Bitterleaftea Bitterleaftea, who have very well curated teapots ranging from glass, porcelain, stoneware but also jianshui and yixing. they have pretty good marketing.

51pot A Vendor selling Student works for cheap, includes Vases, Teapots, Teacups and Teapets, quality is okay and you can get a good deal here sometimes!

Realzisha They sell authentic yixing teapots, also claiming to be in contact with the artist and providing certificates and such. Whether that is true I can not say, however their Marketing is quite aggressively towards implying they are the only ones selling the real deal, which I can say is not a concern you should have as all the other Vendors in this list also sell good stuff. They sell mostly very large yixing teapots which are not that suited for solo brewing sessions.

Puerh.sk Sells Jing Dian Tao Fang teapots, which is a small workshop that used to make teapots with Old Factory 1 Clay batches. Their pots are old school style but having a way better construction than the often sloppy pots from the Factory 1 Era (the 70s-90s). Modern option for those who like the charm of old pots but with good lidfit.
