Rosanna Red Dots Teapot, Gift-boxed

The teapot in particular epitomizes the cheerful aspect of Red Dots. The curve of the lid perfectly blends with the body of the pot to form a very compelling sphere. The ball knob on the lid is whimsically topped with a red dot, and a couple more dots decorate the large loop handle and spout. Holding 60 ounces of tea, the pot serves quite a few guests with the matching six-ounce teacups. Even though the porcelain teapot is not trimmed with gold, Rosanna recommends washing it by hand and avoiding microwave use. The pot comes in an oval hat-box-style gift box, white with red dots and a perky red rim band, ready for giving on a special occasion. --Ann Bieri
