This is a modern interpretation of a classic Yixing form. However, the pictures are somewhat kitschy.
Inscriptions on the bottom,
雲天外　　　-　Clouds outside of the sky
作至　孟臣　-　Made　by Mengchen

Hui Mengchen 恵孟臣　1621-1644　
A famous potter from Yixing during the Tianqi period of the Ming Dynasty. He was well known for
his pear-shaped teapots.

With regards,
