Teapot Collectables


Christmas Teapots

Teapots! That amazing vessel with a spout and handle! What is it about teapots that fascinate us? Could it be that since tea is the most consumed beverage in the world, the teapot has grown in popularity as a collectible? Also, I suppose that we are imbibed with teapot awareness right from childhood. Who does not remember that nursery rhyme even after many many summers and grey hair?

I'm a little teapot,
Short and stout
Here is my handle
Here is my spout
When I get all steamed up,
Hear me shout
Just tip me over and pour me out!

Yes, everyone knows that a teabag and an electric jug is all that's needed to make a cup of tea, but then, oh no, they wont do for real tea lovers! Tea lovers love their cuppa brewed in the pot with a beautiful tea cosy thrown over the pot. Sounds heavenly!

‘Strange, how a teapot can represent at the same time the comforts of solitude and the pleasures of company.’ ~Author Unknown. Oh, so very true!


Is collecting teapots a storm in the teapot? Obviously not! It’s a collector’s delight! Teapots come in many styles and a variety of textures like cast iron, stoneware, bone china, porcelain, glass and brightly colored ceramics. The imagination, inventiveness and humor in producing teapots have made teapots a collector’s dream. Certain teapot designs reflect the taste and history of a particular era.



Christmas Teapots

Ofcourse, there are collectible teapots for every season as well. Valentine’s Day teapots, Halloween teapots, Mother’s Day teapot ,Easter teapots,Thanksgiving teapots and the most colourful and joyous of all seasonal teapots are the Holiday teapots.

Christmas teapots make the most beautiful Holiday décor.They look so decorative,festive, vibrant and whimsical anywhere, whether perched on your microwave ,fridge,kitchen cabinet or in nooks and corners in your dining room or kitchen. Now, the trendy tiny teapots used as ornaments on Christmas trees look just awesome!

Whatever the collections of teapots maybe - vintage or new, figural or floral in design, seasonal or functional, Victorian or modern, Asian or Chinese,they are all so alluring, fascinating and enthralling simply because they are –a teapot!
