New little teapot, happily brewing up some Witchy tea (Ding Dong, er... Dong Ding) for me. :wink:

Brewing up the anti-witchy tea, isn't it?

Lovely little thing.

Can you say OCD? Here are some of my Blue and White Lotus Flower Teapots. They date from the Qing Dynasty and Republican Period. I'm a huge fan of them. Each shape and lid is different and every painting is unique. They are fun. Some of them are quite crudely painted and others are extrordinary.

Sadly, this is just one of many obsessions when it comes to tea ware.

I've used them all. I like to use antique pieces. They have such a great feeling to them.

Sorry, the tea trays are not for sale.

If you come and visit me though I will use them to serve you tea.

I was so psyched that I had to show this off. I bought the pot a couple of years ago. It is from the Republican Period. I loved the plum blossoms on it. I just thought it was a fun and pretty pot. Last weekend I bought a collection of cups and this one was with it. It matches the teapot perfectly. :D

Thank you. The old teapots always came with matching teacups, but it's very rare to find them together. It's always so exciting when I can put two together.
