Usage of Teapots

Most people use teapot to make tea and yes I do...  However, when I first felt in love with teapots, I like their shapes...  

Bamboo Basket

I like this bamboo basket teapot very much... The workmanship is very fine. My friend bought this from China in the late 80's.

Luggage and Umbrella

This little teapot was also a gift from our friend.  My husband started a company in Toronto selling handbags, luggage, and umbrella...:)

       

Three Little Pigs (福禄壽)

Fish

I bought these three piggy teapots in the year of Pig in Taipei...  The three pigs represent Fortune (福), Wealth (祿), and Longevity (壽)...

I cannot remember where I bought the fish, might also be in Taipei as well.  

We've never used these teapots.  They are great decorative items in my home for years...
