Description:
English creamware globular teapot with cover decorated with floral sprays in red, pink, green, and yellow, which is attributed to William Greatbatch (1735-1813). Greatbatch was a well-known Staffordshire potter, who had also worked for Thomas Whieldon and Josiah Wedgwood as a supplier of molds and ceramic wares; this pot's form and decoration is common to other identified Greatbatch wares. The pot has a flat lid with a button knob, curved spout, and an inverted loop or ear-shaped handle which is typical of fragments found on the Greatbatch site in Fenton. Painted floral decoration.
