This intricately potted teapot depicts the lively imagery of the legendary carp transforming into a dragon after leaping over the ‘Dragon Gate’, symbolising the success of a candidate in passing the civil servant examination in ancient China and hence onto a path of honour and status. The signature Yulin is that of Huang Yulin, a renowned Yixing potter active during the late 19th to early 20th century.
