Yes–that is a great way to put it!!! Interesting to say the least!!!
What a cool teapot! I got a teapot from Good Guy for our anniversary, and it has a lovely deep strainer/steeper that fits deep into the pot. I haven’t used it yet, but it’s really nice for a lone tea drinker.
Oh I love it when they come with their own steepers!!! Those are the best kind!!! It sounds lovely!!!
Oh, Beth Ann, this one is amazing! Gotta love Ebay. I missed you this weekend, as well, my friend!
Hugs,

Glad you had such a wonderful weekend!!! It looked lovely!
Oh I love it! I want it. It’s the perfect companion to my Sadler Robin Hood teapot. I really should take a picture of it to show you. We have lots of these unique Sadler china items ….not sure if the fact my late grandma’s maiden was Sadler is a coincidence.
Oh I want to see a picture!!!! That sounds awesome!! And what a neat thing to have a collection of Sadler items!! Awesome!
This teapot is really something, so different and beautifully done.
This whole period of English history was my favorite! This looks absolutely lovely & unique.
It is pretty cool and I have found that Sadler has a whole series of neat English themed pots like this!
I like this one–very unique with those points! It looks cool.
It is kind of regal looking, isn’t it???
Wow! That is definitely unique.
That’s funny. I used to have a coffee cup that had him and his wives, but the wives didn’t appear until hot water was in it. What can I say, I’m a history nerd.
Oh that is great!!! I would love that!! Kind of the opposite of those “nudie” glasses / cups where the clothes disappear….
That is quite the teapot. Love the shape of it… I’ve been watching a lot of Hen. viii stuff on netflix lately, interesting.
Very interesting!!! I think that would be a great series to watch!! Thanks for the comment !
