Circa 1840 Chinese Export Sacred Bird and Butterfly Orange Rare Teapot in Excellent Condition and Very Good Quality. This unusual size "SWEET TEAPOT" is 4" in height and measures 6" from the top f the double strapped handle to the tip of the spout, On the top of the lid is a cute gilded finial. The double strapped handles are attached with artistic splotching to the teapot. Teapots are rare in this pattern. About 10 years ago I purchased a 200 piece set of this pattern in Maine that was fabulous and had every form you could imagine and not even one single teapot. This nice dimunitive teapot is really a great size and so sweet. This would make a nice addition to any chinese export collector or even a teapot collector. No Restoration.
