Stingray Skin Teapot

This is a teapot by artist Jiri Duchek and the crackling glaze is referred to as 'stingray skin glaze', although it is different from kairagi glaze, which, to my current information, ist the 'real' stingray skin glaze and crackles in a way so that the original clay underneath breaks through. This is not the case here, and also this particular teapot is somewhat hesitant to crackle, as I have seen other examples also made by Jiri that are much more prone to crackle. The tea that was brewed was a puerh from Jingmai mountain in Yunnan.
