| TEAPOTS and TEAGLASSES |
We have lots of silver teapots, variously decorated, usually with a floral or leafy theme, sometimes geometric. Often the handle or the four feet will be in contrasting brass. Just a few from our selection are shown below.
All of the teapots are made to be used and have probably poured vast quantities of mint tea over the many decades of their lives as the pride of a Moroccan household
