Antique ? Chinese Rose Famille Teapot

Description

I’m not an expert in Chinese porcelain but I believe this teapot is rather old as there is no import mark. It measures 5″ tall not including handle and 13 1/2″ around, not including spout. There is no top and a deep chip as shown in photo. Since I’m not an expert I don’t know if this is worth repairing or not. If not worth the repair I would just cover chip with gold paint from a craft store and use as a decorative piece. There’s no cracks on the outside radiating from the chip. It will be wrapped in bubblewrap and styrofoam peanuts for safe shipping. Sold as is. Any questions, please fell free to ask. Please be aware Ebay now charges sales tax. Payment due within 7 days of auctions end. Thank you.
