Venus & Mars teapot

Venus & Mars is a teapot with a difference, a collaborative venture by Richard Parrington and Katy Windsor. Over the years we’ve often talked about producing a new teapot design, on a small scale, especially as there is still great interest by the collectors for something new by Parrington Designs. However, we felt that most 'themes' had been exhausted. That was until January this year 2005, when we decided to make a new design, based on a detail of a Renaissance painting by Andrea Mantegna, Parnassus, an allegory of Mars, the God of war and Venus, the Goddess of love. Venus and Mars has an anticipated limited run of 80 pieces and a price of £265.00
