Lot 772: A Trio of Glazed Earthenware Novelty Teapots
A trio of glazed earthenware novelty teapots featuring diverse architectural and animal forms. The first teapot is modelled as a rectangular railway station with a pitched roof and a chimney-style spout, finished in cream and yellow glazes. It features hand-painted and transfer-printed details, including a clock face, a sign for Primrose Junction, an Oxo advertisement, and a doorway depicting figures. The side of the body bears the handwritten text a holiday station teapot 90. The second teapot is an anthropomorphic seated elephant wearing a formal tuxedo, comprising a pinstriped jacket, red bow tie, and black trousers, where the trunk serves as the spout. The third teapot is a stylized elephant head in a uniform pale blue glaze, with the trunk raised to form the spout. No printed manufacturer marks or backstamps are visible on any of these items.
