A Chinese export Batavia ware brown glazed tea pot.
This tea pot dates to around 1730, it is from a group of Chinese ceramics characterized by the brown iridescent glaze. This particular pot has had a pretty hard life, the handle has a 19th century rattan replacement, the lid is the correct period however is not original to the pot. There is a note inside the pot, saying how valuable this pot was thought to be. Charming and fascinating though this may be these accumulated faults have lowered its value.
If these issues are not of concern to you, then this piece of early 18th century porcelain could be yours for a meager £55.00
