Description:
Cylindrical teapot with curved spout, two ring attachments on the shoulder for the double handles, and cover with two oval holes in the centre. Made in porcelain painted in coloured enamels combined with rubber stamps. On the shore a woman strolls holding the hand of a child, and a postman approaches on a bicycle; to the right are tall trees with reddish brown trunks and three village houses with orange roofs. On the river a steamship flies two red flags and belches smoke; there are no fishermen or sailing boats. On the other side is an inscription, with an inscription on the cover. Base with unglazed outer ring and glazed centre with a red octagonal seal.
