Description
This cheerful strawberry teapot is made from ceramic and shaped like a plump ripe berry, from its rounded red body to the leafy top of its lid. The surface is textured with little seed dimples, each picked out with a dot of soft yellow, so it catches the light the way real fruit does. A ring of green leaves sits on the lid, with a short green stalk at the centre that makes a natural knob to lift it by. A smooth red spout and a curved, open handle complete the shape. It holds 820ml, a generous pot for sharing, and stands 14.9cm tall, 13cm wide and 17.7cm deep.
It belongs on the kitchen table or the breakfast tray, where it brings a bit of summer to an ordinary morning cuppa. We think it suits a cottage kitchen, a country dresser or a bright dining room, and it is as happy on an open shelf between brews, where its fruity shape works as a piece of decoration in its own right. Pour from it at a weekend brunch, a lazy Sunday or over a slice of cake with friends in the garden, and it tends to raise a smile. It also makes a cheerful, practical present that earns its place every day.
The teapot is ceramic with a glazed finish, which gives the red its glossy shine and makes the outside easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth. As good practice for glazed ceramic, we would wash it by hand in warm soapy water, rinse it well and leave it to dry with the lid off. Lift the lid by its stalk and handle the leaves gently, as the raised detail is part of the charm. For a pretty table, set it on a linen cloth beside a jug of garden flowers, and let that bright strawberry red do the rest.
