Wind the underside of this charming Irish-themed and surprise your company when it starts to play a delicately slow, nostalgic melody of "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling"!
This ceramic teapot, handcrafted in England for Schmid, uses a spring loaded plunger on the underside to both start (when lifted) and stop the music (when put down). What a cute novelty addition to any teapot collection.
Origin: England (teapot)/ Japan (perhaps the musical element); pre-owned
Dimensions: 6"H (to tip) x 8 3/4"W (spout to handle)
Condition: Very Good/Great. Light age-related scuff wear is seen to the thumb handle rest, spout, and finial tip gold. Despite what is noted, the gold trim is overall reflective and bright.
The teapot is clean with no chips, cracks, stains, or crazing. The wind turns with ease and has no issues, and the musical element plays well with great sound.
