<p>[QUOTE="ValerieK, post: 2217634, member: 7360"]What a fabulous teapot! It makes me think of one of the many objects of desire that have got away over the years (i.e. I was outbid) - a Staffordshire teapot in a large job lot painted, I think, with flowers, underneath which I could just make out a dedication to Queen Caroline of Brunswick, the unhappy wife of George IV. The whole marriage was a notorious business and the manufacturer must have decided to stay neutral and changed its bit of royal memorabilia to something quite bland. I wonder if any unaltered ones survive.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
