Last week I had opportunity to go into the campus bookstore, which of course has a lot more than just books, and I saw these delightful teapots:
I adore them both, but I think I am partial to the one on the right, with the flatter back. Family tradition says that an elephant with its trunk in the upright position is good luck, so these guys are definitely going on my Christmas list! What a nice addition to my small but useful teapot collection!
