A wonderful addition to your china can be this unusual teapot from the Seasons of Color line. Seasons of Color are two full lines of complimentary patterns to the classic and universally loved Old Country Roses. Long since discontinued, this pattern was available around the turn of the century for just a few short years and had two distinct offerings: one for the fall/winter and one for the spring/summer seasons. The Christmas line was all deep jeweled colors and holiday topiaries and traditional evergreen enhancements. The Spring line featured soft muted pastels and blossoms, perfect for spring and summer entertaining, particularly Easter time. This fine bone china teapot is from the Spring collection. A rare teapot, it is not like the usual OCR scrolled and rounded ones. This is a simple and smooth cylinder design with Asian influence, one that allows the lavish beauty of the pattern to be shown from every angle. It is a chintz design of fresh spring flowers entwined on a pale yellow background. Interspersed between gracefully arching stems and fresh green leaves you will find clusters of rosebuds, freesia and violas. Here and there, you will see dainty butterflies, sampling the nectar of these pretty blossoms. The spout, handle, lid and interior of the teapot are a sparkling bright white, providing maximum contrast and compliment to the floral design. The lid to the teapot is also simply designed, with just a single butterfly accent. 24-K Gold accents the edges of the pot, handle and lid. The spout is adorned with a single rosebud. This elegant and refined design is a beautiful complement to your Old Country Roses collection, or an important addition to your Spring Seasons of Color collection. It is a necessity for the serious collector of this classic and stunning china pattern. My sister was an avid collector of this particular pattern and Old Country Roses. I hope they bring happiness and joy to your family. My sister has recently downsized and has asked me to post household and clothing items she has eliminated, as she simplifies her life. She has had me list her entire professional wardrobe since she has had successful bypass surgery. The items range from size 18 down to 14. She has many, many items that are all in style and very nice for the office so please look at the other listings. All her clothing or household pieces are from higher end retail/designer labels, most are very lightly used and some are even new with or w/o tags. Many clothing items have been dry cleaned and still have the cleaners tags! All items I list are always 100% authentic and come from a smoke free home. This also means that there may be an occasional spot or snag that I or my camera may have inadvertently missed. Feedback: If there is a problem, please contact me before you leave feedback and I will work to resolve the problem.
