Hi You all i need some help for ID'ing this Teapot i got it from my Dad/Inherited it when he passed away on May 5th and i had to take a train up to NH from Kansas. And believe it or not i missed the train that had crashed because i got a earlier one and thank god for that I'd say

So when i got to NH i pack up the Van he had and drove back to Kansas and that took 4 Days what a drive i ran into nothing but construction and bad weather all the way

Well attached are the Pictures of the Tea Pot it is approx 10" high and 1.5" in depth by 5" wide

This is an ewer in the shape of the longevity character (?) it seems. The Kangxi mark is problably not of the period. Would need some closeups of the decoration (partial) and the bottom. Most likely it is from the late Qing dynasty or early republic period.
