My Top 20 Retro & Vintage Teapots

Here is my pick of the top 20 Retro Teapots which have crossed my path - well to date anyway:).....I'm sure there are more waiting around the corner. These were all made between 1930-1975. If you want to find out more about the pattern or design just look on the index on the side under the name of the maker or design and you will find the corresponding post - except of the first 2 images - which I haven't posted about as yet.

I would like to say I had a favourite, but that is just too difficult - I like them all - some are showy and flash, some quiet and comforting- but there is one for every occasion and from tea for 1 to tea for 10.
