Back to the holidays: I visited a pottery in the town of Leyburn in Wensleydale - the Tea Pottery, to be precise. They make... you guessed... tea pots, in every shape imaginable. In theory they are useable for the nation's favourite brew but I imagine most are bought as decorative items by collectors.
My daughter has an Aga cooker in her new home, green, just like the teapot below (apart from the handle of course, haha.) She abhors kitsch though so I wasn't tempted to get her a gift.
Somewhere I've been into a tea-shop that has the walls lined with such absurdities. I'm afraid I'm from the chuck-a-teabag-in-a-mug school of thought.
ReplyDeleteFirst shot made me smile Jenny :) bet there are many who wouldn't be able to resist taking home a teapot :)
ReplyDeleteI like the wee caravan t-pot, Jenny!
ReplyDeleteSome are a bit outrageous to say the least. I love looking at tea pot collections in cafes.
ReplyDeleteThere is an English tea room in Naples that has many decorative teapots like these. I have tried photographs a few times but never liked them enough to post.
