My t-pots are extremely functional; almost oriental in their simplicity. I can
fathom creating a t-pot that will just be stared at and dusted once in a while.
Gives me the willies just thinking about it.....

sam - alias the cat lady,
Is there anywhere we can see your almost oriental teapots? I too
cannot fathom making a teapot that will just sit there and not be used.
Even if someone is buying it as a collector's item or as decoration, it has
to be functional, otherwise it just doesn't work for me.

All the best.

By the way, was it Canada that sent us this unexpected snow!?
