Tower Teapot

Made in England

A note from Sharon on Tuesday 1st August 2006

I 'found' this teapot at work

It has been sitting around for years
and no-one used it and no-one wanted it
---so I claimed it and brought it home!!!

The bakelite handle has been repaired
and you can see the white patch near the top of the handle in the above photos
It also has a couple of minor dents

Other than that it displays well - just needs a good clean

It is very small, and measures just 100mm high (4 inches)
and is 180mm (7 inches) across from spout to handle

The markings on the bottom are too feint to photograph,
but they say 'Made in England - Tower Brand'

It is a nice partner to my larger teapots!!!
