<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 4411785, member: 23"]I have a Sheffield plate teapot that looks similar. As Owned said - no insulator on top. They usually have bone or ivory inserts as insulators. The one on top of mine is ivory and if you look closely at the handle you will see bone discs between the pot and the handle so you don't burn your hand picking it up. I think that bovine is a later addition.[ATTACH=full]374781[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
