This lot shows light restoration along the rim. Among the various Chen Yun Hao editions, the black-on-white inner ticket featuring a sun motif with the words "Chen Yun Gui Yin," is the most esteemed. Made from Yiwu large-leaf arbor tea leaves, the cake features thick, short, and tightly twisted strips in a deep chestnut tone with a natural sheen. After a century of aging, it reveals a robust yet mellow profile, true to the character of classic Yiwu Zhengshan tea.
