Tony CartersOpen Weekend

Christmas Open Weekend Fast Approaching!
It's only 2 more days before Tony's 30th Christmas Open Weekend This year there will be an Auction on Sunday at 2.30pm with 20 unique items from the Pottery. The usual demonstrations of making and painting teapots, a prize draw for the Collectors and a general draw for other customers who attend on either day. And with complimentary mulled wine to loosen those purse strings they are hoping for a good turn out to support their chosen Charity for this year The St Elizabeth Hospice in Suffolk

World's largest teapot?

According to Jon Schallert who sent me this photo this could be the world's largest teapot and can be found in Navasota Texas.
Thanks Jon.

One of Christa Assad's Iron Teapots was included in a special exhibition at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco’s brand new de Young Museum. The teapot show is part of a fabulous exhibition, The Diane and Sandy Besser Collection, up through the beginning of January ‘08 . There were 75 teapots in all, a virtual who’s who of contemporary American ceramics.
