Teapot Baskets

One look at this silver-wired container may convince you that you'll have lots of trouble keeping anything inside.
But looks are deceiving. In fact, you'll decide to keep this lovely teapot-shaped vessel for three reasons:
- It will have your friends chatting and smiling as it's passed around for
them to select tea and sugar from inside.
- The stainless steel construction ensures that it will never rust, and
its sturdiness guarantees that it won't dent.
- If you love teapots, this is one to covet in your collection
Look closely, and you'll see carrying handles dangling on the inside of this teapot. The handles are too weighty to stay atop the vessel on its own.
In addition, the handles' position makes storing the teapot on a shorter shelf easier than if stationery on the outside.

The spout's detail is quite interesting, as though tea would actually be poured up and through it. As with some of the other wider-weaved baskets described on this site, you can line the inside of this teapot with tissue paper for security and decoration. |

Wicker baskets create a unique appeal, and so do contemporary creations made with steel and other non-traditional materials. I bet that when you find this teapot, you'll quickly find a use for it in your home or as a gift.
