We saw these fancy teapots in a college art center. Made as art displays, not actually use, they were in glass cases.

The teapots looks like they are posing as ladies! Very nicely decorated!
Wonderfully creative and talented people! Thanks for sharing these. I am going back to them again so that I can look at the detail.
It looks as if they had fun making them...they make me smile.
Very nice teapots, but I think they are not that handy!
If you use them only as decoration they are gorgeous!
Wow...the colors,are a bit "evil" looking, like halloweenush! This looks,to me, like a neat idea. I'd have fun.
These are very elaborate looking teapots. They look like something out of an Alice in Wonderland kind of story.
I LOVE that last quote.
How beautiful! I've often thought I'd love to live in a college town, as they usually have all sorts of wonderful coffee shops and book stores and concerts & plays at the school, and the like. But then again I think about it some more and decide that with college students comes a lot of ruckus too. Perhaps I'd just like to visit instead. :-) These teapots are glorious! ~Andrea xoxo
They are beautiful. ‘Polly put the kettle on...”
How FANTASTIC is that??
I love them all, they are so cool!
they are truly talented.. love the whistling wishes and steaming dreams..
Beautiful and unique, Ginny, Yes, tea does have medicinal usage, there is a lot of tea consumed here in the south, I also enjoy herbal tea, especially ginger for digestion..
Thank you for sharing have a great day,
Blessings,

Cool teapots. Great for display.
These are beautiful teapots, but on a cold morning like this I would like a teapot I could use to get some hot tea.
Some people are so creative!
Always enjoy the neat and interrelating things you share. I appreciate your visits and comments.
They are all very unusual.
What fascinating artsy fartsy teapots.
Cute but they sure would take up a lot of space.
Thanks for sharing, Ginny.

You have the most unusual items around you - is your area noted for art cultures?
WOW! these are all quite unique and beautiful. can you imagine pouring tea for you and your company from one of these pots? I love a good ol' hot cup of tea. No English in me that I know of, but tea in the afternoon is pretty good...
Those are some fancy teapots.
These are so fun! There are some creative people out there!
Those are fabulous! I like the one with the words on it. xoxo
