Title: Can anyone help identify this tea pitcher/pot??
Post by: drododdsnends on June 14, 2011, 07:59:27 PM: I came across this at a thrift store today, it is really nice. It seems to be some type of tea/drink pitcher. It has a picture of two females and a young child on the front. The handle seems to be half gold plated, or painted possibly? It has nothing on the bottom except a faded made in Japan stamp, and the thrift store wrote 9.99 on it. I searched around the internet and didnt find anything, I may just be looking in the wrong area. I am curious about age, origin, and possible value? Here are some pics. Click the thumbnails to enlarge pics. Thanks guys!!
