This gorgeous pink rose teapot was made in Japan by Fine Seyei China. It is painted with lovely pink roses and tiny lavender flowers. It is also trimmed in gold. This teapot has a drip guard on it. After you pour your cup, right the pot, and hold it still, over the cup for a moment.  The last drip will drip into your cup. It works perfectly.  It comes to you brand new and unused.
