Title

Teapot with oversize handle

Description

This small, dark, slab-built stoneware teapot has a crisp, geometric look. The pot is squared, the lid is flatly inset in the body. The lid is a perfect circle with a cubelike attached knob (currently detached by damage). The small spout is slightly oval. The handle of the pot is rodlike and set at a 90 degree angle to the spout. There is a signature carved into the bottom.
