Spring Urchin Teapot
Spring Urchin Teapot
Worlds most fancy pants teapot… OK, slight exaggeration… but it’s a super complicated, labor intensive piece to make which explains the higher price. I don’t really see myself making more of these in the future, so if you are a teapot collector and like this piece… now’s the time!
You can make and serve tea in this jiggly functional teapot, though you may not want to toss it into the dishwasher. Hey, speaking of tossing… this multi purpose teapot also serves as a home security system. Just toss or swing this piece at an home intruder and they’ll likely leave (if physically able)
Approx. 12 in. tall x 8.5 Red stoneware, copper patina brass spikes, steel springs
