| A charming late 19th century Japanese pebble finish glaze hand painted teapot with the original interior tea strainer. This teapot measures 8-3/8" across the spout and handle and it stands 5-1/2" high and it has a beige-tan coloured background with a glaze that looks like the rind of an orange or a tiny all-over pebble glaze (have also heard this referred to as sharkskin glaze) . The glaze does not cover the two panels (one on each side) with a white background with painted floral scenes in cobalt blue, purple, red, pink, orange and green. There are also dark red and blue flowers painted in various spots around the teapot, as well as additional green leaves. This teapot retains its original interior china strainer and it is signed on the bottom. The bottom of the teapot and a small amount near the bottom is unglazed. It is in excellent condition with no cracks, crazing, staining, repairs or damage other than some losses to the gold trim on the top rim and spout and a bit of gold rubbing on the floral panels and there is minor chipping on the strainer rim. There is a minute pin hole sized spot on the tip of the spout that is missing glaze and some variations on the thickness of the tan pebble glaze, including a spot on the handle - looks like a small finger spot where the glaze was not applied - but this is original to the making of this piece. Surface shipping starts at $15 (to the US - other spots may vary) - insured is higher. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US. | ||||||||||
