This is a teapot purchased at an antique shop. The white base with the red painting is beautiful, and the unpainted areas are spotless and pristine white. However, there are signs of age and use around the opening of the lid, as it was when I purchased it. As this is an antique/vintage item, I would appreciate your understanding. ●Size (approximate/cm) Tea strainer size: 6-6.5 (slightly oval) 20 x 9, height 10.5 When shipping, I will take care to package it to prevent rain damage or breakage.
