Hello! I am very interested in identifying the maker of this tetsubin based on these marks. I'd love any help or leads. Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!

Engraved marking,
龍文堂造　- Ryūbundō-zō - Made by Ryūbundō

Ryūbundō was a manufacturer of iron teapots in Kyōto, that had been in business for eight generations, from the late Edo period through the early Shōwa period.

Bottom marking、
紅隣堂造　Kōrindō-zō - Made by Kōrindō

Probably name of an associated workshop or a foundry.

With regards,
I.Nagy

Thank you so much for this information, this is incredibly helpful! Your knowledge is very impressive!
