Antique White Ironstone Tea Pot 8 cups
Description: This White Ironstone Tea Pot from the 19th century is so charming and decorative. It’s rather large measuring 9 ½” tall and 10 inches wide from spout to end of handle. Although not marked, it most likely originated from England due to its nice solid weight and just a hint of blue-gray undertones in certain lighting, like most early English Ironstone. It’s nothing but ordinary with a highly decorative raised leaf and intertwined vine pattern around the top and lower belly and a leaf pattern on lid. Take notice of the fancy spout and ornate handle with scrolling and a raised leaf motif near the thumb rest. A classy piece of ironstone for your next tea gathering.
