Vintage Teapot-Shaped Ceramic Teabag Holder / Spoon Rest

$9.00

This vintage ceramic is the kind of piece that makes everyday rituals feel more considered. With a glazed finish, it features a softly rounded teapot silhouette with warm caramel-toned edging and a hand-painted floral centre in buttery yellows and muted greens.

The underside appears to be signed “Pam”, suggesting it was likely made by an individual ceramicist or small studio. Pieces like this were especially popular across Australia and the UK in the 1970s–1980s, when homewares leaned into hand-finished details and decorative, kitchen-friendly forms.

Originally intended as a teabag holder, it’s perfectly sized to catch drips beside your cup. It also lends itself beautifully to other uses around the home. Think a spoon rest while cooking, a ring dish by the sink or bedside, or a small catch-all for jewellery bits and pieces.

A thoughtful find for high tea lovers, collectors of retro ceramics, or anyone drawn to practical pretties of decades past.
