This mini clay teapot from Taiwan really works! It is made out of clay and has an earthy appeal to it. The body is reddish with ivory polka dots on it. The lid is matching with a gray handle. The handle and spout of the teapot itself are both gray. There are no markings on it. When filled, the liquid does come out of the spout, but drips slowly, as this is a very small teapot. It is about twice the size of a quarter- see pictures.
