VINTAGE : MID-CENTURY Cube Square Teapot c1950
The cube teapot is a teapot whose main purpose was to be used on a ship. The cube shape of the teapot would stabilise it so that it would not roll over and scald the person making the drink, whereas conventional curved teapots would rollover when the ship rocked from side to side.
The cube teapot was invented by Englishman Robert Crawford Johnson (18821937), who was responsible for the design and registered "Cube Teapots Ltd" in 1917. He perfected the design, one that did not drip, poured easily, was chip resistant and stacked together for easy storage. With no spout or projecting handle the cube teapot looked exactly as it sounds - a cube.
The cube teapot was first put into production in 1920, in by Arthur Wood of , England.
This is a lovely piece to own. It's still in a very good condition considering its age and will give you joy for many more years. Most definitely an item to treasure and pass on to your heirs.
Its a lovely old piece which can still be used and enjoyed daily. A MUST HAVE!!
Due to the fact that I am a working Seller, I will not always be able to answer your queries immediately. Please have patience and keep it in mind.
I also DO NOT WORK on Sundays on Bid or Buy. So please do not expect a reply until the next working day.
I have the right to close and/or withdraw an item from auction at any time.
Should you win a bid and non payment occurs, I will be left no choice but to report and block you. The reason being that non payment has a financial implication to me as a Seller. We pay commission on all orders/bids won (even when it is a non-payment) as well as on shipping cost. Thus bidding on an item, not intending to proceed with payment is not acceptable and will not be tolerated.
