Huang Yulin (ca.1842-1914) was a native of Yixing, who received training from the renowned Qing dynasty Yixing artist Shao Xiangpu. Huang's superb skills of clay kneading and teapot making are often demonstrated on teapots in various forms. Gu Jingzhou had also highly admired Huang's craftsmanship and commended him as a “versatile potter” especially for making teapots of compressed globular and square forms.
The design of this teapot is based on one said to have been made by Gong Chun, a Yixing potter from the Zhengde period of the Ming dynasty. Gong Chun's teapot was so admired that this style, with the roughly textured surface resembling tree bark, came to be named after him. This style continued to be copied into the 19th century.
Literature comparison: Compare a similar teapot by Huang Yulin dated to the late 19th century from the K. S. Lo Collection, in K. S. Lo, The Stonewares of Yixing - From the Ming period to the Present Day, p.119, pl.58, another from the Palace Museum, Beijing, illustrated in Zisha Wares in the Palace Museum, Beijing, pl.82, p.147.
Auction result comparison: A closely related teapot and cover, together with a second teapot by a different artist, was sold by Bonhams Hong Kong in Fine Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art on 26 May 2013, lot 427, for HKD 680,000.
