Today’s teapot was a find in a great little resale store here in Mason City called Unique Repeats. They have everything from fun furniture to vintage items including tons of teapots. I definitely will be shopping here often to see what new items come in. Great store with a wonderful staff—isn’t it wonderful to find shops like that? No markings at all on the bottom and the teapot appears to never have been used for actual tea making so I suspect it was on display in someone’s home sometime. Any ideas on it’s heritage????
All true tea lovers not only like their tea strong, but like it a little stronger with each year that passes.

Blue and white….with the striking touch of yellow…….awesome!!! My absolute fave combo!!!! Hope you are thoroughly enjoying the fam!!! Hugs……..
Don’t you just love that combo?? Someday I am going to have a blue and yellow room—-I love that look in a beach house and I can see doing bright sunny rooms in those colors!!! And yes—enjoying the family time right now!

I love it. My grandma had a china set that was white and blue and I’ve always loved that. I always have my eyes open for something similar but haven’t really found anything that comes close to what she had.
Oh I bet that china was beautiful! I love the blue and white patterns and if you add yellow to it it makes it even better!
Love the blue and white. I have a gravy boat that is a similar pattern and I love it.
Oooh—a gravy boat to match? Sounds very neat! If only I made gravy!
I have gotten into doing jigsaw puzzles lately. I challenged you to a teapot puzzle – don’t know if you saw it.
Totally missed that one! I have been kind of preoccupied—please forgive me!!
No idea, but it sure is pretty. Nice find!
Thanks Patti—It is a neat one even if I have no idea of the history!
Dutch? Kind of looks like a fancy windmill design on the side. I’m likely totally wrong.
I am thinking some type of Scandinavian but who knows?? No markings whatsoever!
It is a pretty one, isn’t it???
Oh, I love blue and white! But guess what, Beth Ann? Since our container has arrived from the US, my teapots are being unpacked!

Yipppee!!!!
Love that it says tea just in case you didn’t know.
I think that is my favorite part of this teapot!!!
I almost missed that little birdie peeking out!
Another winner. The blue and white make me think it may be Dutch. It is very charming. I to enjoy those kind of stores. You never know what treasures you will find.
Dutch is a good guess. I wish it had some kind of markings on the bottom but there is not a thing to indicate anything about it.
Another lovely blue and white teapot. I like it!
