Top 10 Novelty, Amazing and Unusual Teapots
Wiki tells us that a teapot is, in fact, a vessel used for steeping tea leaves or an herbal mix in boiling or near-boiling water, and for serving the resulting infusion which is called tea. What a load of rubbish! Most of us chuck in a few tea bags and away it goes, but I offer you to join me as I try to find out if the teapot maketh the tea or is it the other way around?!? So without further ado I bring you…

For me, it just simply doesn’t get any better than this jaw-dropping TARDIS teapot. It’s incredible to look at, not too expensive and will be a real talking point at any tea party.
Now that is a good choice indeed.
Dr who tardis tea pot
It would indeed, it does look a little large, but that just means more cups of tea!
That Steampunk teapot is amazing. Would make an excellent talking point!
As the admin of this website is working,
no hesitation very rapidly it will be well-known, due to its feature contents.
Good for you, always nice to hear when people get something out of my posts.
We’re a group of volunteers and starting a new scheme in our community. Your site provided us with valuable information to work on. You’ve done an impressive job and our whole community will be thankful to you.
Like most things it is better if you make it a little bit nerdy.
This makes my wife’s tea pot collection blush. Your top ten lists are amazing.
Tea for Two is great! I thought more people would have gone for that one as well. And thankyou for the very kind words indeed.
Tea for Two, Take Me to Your Leader, and Tardis. I would have a hard time choosing between those three. Great post!
yes!
Again the Sorapot gets another vote, and to think I wasn’t going to include it!
Oooh, lovely selection – thank you. Might just have to get the TARDIS teapot for my husband’s birthday present (and the Sorapot for me…).
The cottage one sounds amazing! I have to admit that I didn’t think this post would do that well, I thought it was just too “British”, but how wrong was I, loads of people, including yourself seemed to like it. I guess Teapots are more popular than I might have thought.
As I sit and drink my morning oolong (loose, not bagged), I enjoyed this presentation. I used to collect teapots, but since adopting a more mobile lifestyle sold most of them. One of favorites was a little English cottage where the steam came out of the chimney. I had some really ugly ones too, mostly gifts from folks who thought any teapot must be a good teapot. I have reduced my collection to four favorites. Thanks for a fun and entertaining post. Enjoyed the comments of others as well.
You’re welcome Russell 🙂
The teapots I mostly found on twitter and pinterest. And thank you for the very kind words.
Wow!! I love most of those teapots…where did you find them?..would really love to collect them for my mama..she would love to have one to add to her many collections…
* Even if the whole world call it teapot..I always serve coffee in those things as well…especially when there are more than 2 guests who enjoys coffee more… 😀
look out fr next weekend’s weekend theme, i think i will be back blogging

Saturday morning thoughts . . .
It just had to be didn’t it. Truly a epic win of a teapot.
Once again, we agree on #1!
It does seem that more people love Teapots than I thought, and there was me thinking no one would liker this blog post.
Oh thank you! I thought I was the only one that found that funny!
Lionel Richie LOL!
I love #9, but I also love all the rest. Love teapots and have a small collection. If I had the room I’d have dozens!
Another vote for the Steampunk Teapot that I seem to have grossly underestimated.
I don’t usually drink tea, but I’d start if I had that steampunk teapot. That is amazing.
Reblogged this on Laura B Williams Designs and commented:
A little fun this morning. My favorite is the Roswell teapot. Yes, I am a nerd, too.
Wow, any images to share with us?
But which one did you think was the best?!?
I like mine, bought many years ago and now I see it featured in the Danish museum of design, and one in the USA.
It pours beautifully
Hilarious!
Thank you. I’m just a nerd that likes lists! *LOL*
just looking through your posts, having a great laugh!
What a great idea for a blog!
No problem, it seems a lot of people like my Teapot blog for some reason. Maybe Tea really is bigger than coffee!
Way cool, just sent the link to my step-daughter, she’s a teapotaholic!
Thanks for liking my blog 🙂
Reblogged this on creoad.
The bamboo one? That is awesome!
That second one is so funny!
The sorapot eh. It is beautiful that is for sure.
I Completely Agree
Number 5 is my Absolute Fav! Liked simply because of your humorous descriptions!
I agree. Not many places you will get all that in one place!
Another sign that you have great tastes.
Yeah, a lot of people like that one.
Iced tea, I have not had that in ages!
I LOVE all of these! #5 is my favorite for sure. So cool to be able to see the tea. So designy.
Well, I hate all tea unless it’s iced & heavily sugared. But I’m sure Mama would LOVE this…
All are unique, I like the green Alien the most.. Would never thought it’s actually a teapot.
Dibs on the TARDIS and steampunk teapots! But I love them all.
Epic, just epic my friend. TARDIS, Aliens and Tea all in the same place. I less than three it!
Tea bags like me, or leafs like professional drinkers?
as a tea drinker myself, these are really cool, I love the steampunk one especially. very cool!
Apparently so, thank you.
Then you have great taste as well.
I really enjoyed this article. I love tea – tea leaves (bags when I am lazy) and I am always looking for new funky tea pots. Thanks. I love the Tardis!
Everyone seems to like the Steampunk one. And there was me thinking the TARDIS one would be loved by all.
Now this is too cute. The sorapot and the steampunk are my favorites. Tea anyone??
We will all be round in 10 mins. So how many Tepots have you got then?!?
Oooh i collect teapots but these are wayyyyyy beyond anything ive got!!!!! Love the tardis one… Lol relative Digestives!!!!!!! Brill post! Cuppa anyone?! 🙂
I don’t have £24.19 for the first one, let alone the others! *LOL*
I like No. 5, 3, and 2 best. The others make me nauseous just thinking about them! But those three are excellent and sorted. I don’t really have a spare £1,500 for the bamboo one, though. Which is a shame.
You thought right. Great teapot for sure.
Nah, I need milk. But it Tea always goes will with a nice bit of cake.
*LOL* Whatever your own REAL opinion is, is always the best one to comment with! If you think they are crap just say so, this blog is my own opinion and there will be millions who would disagree with it.
Haha! Thanks, I thought you’d appreciate that one! 😀
my favourite brew is ceylon tea. more for its colour really. to me they all taste the same. haha. because i drink it v weak and no milk or suger.
I think they’re rubbish! Oh, hang on… what’s the opposite of “rubbish”? “Great”? I got so confused by things. I do love tea, though. And these tea pots are DISGUSTING! Or great. Whichever word is the positive one.
Yeah it is a little expensive but stunning to look at for sure.
So what type of tea are we having when you boil a brew up for us then?
This is awesome! My favorite is definitely the Sorapot. It is great to see what is inside the teapot. I wonder why no one has ever come up with this idea before.
?!??!??!!? That would have SSOOOOO made it onto this list. I didn’t see that anywhere! IT’S EPIC!
hi, i was hoping when i talked about the teapot i have that u might do a list of 10best and come up with some real humdingers. and u certainly did not disappoint. sure difficult to pick a favourite but being a practical person, i chose the one i would most like to use myself, the humourous lionel richie one. that design of teapot allows for 2cups of tea at the same time being very compact and easy to carry with one hand.
I love this, it must take a long time to narrow it down to 10. Great finds, no.3 is so cool! Whilst on the subject of teapots, check out the Back to the Future one I was gifted at Christmas:
We are very blessed here in Oamaru..so many talented artistic souls, its a great part of the world

Do you really own some steampunk tarot cards?!?
Thank you. What one did you like best?
Oh I love to drink tea….and OMG At The Steampunk Tea pot..I need to buy one of those to serve tea to my clients while I read their tarot using (of course) The Steampunk Tarot deck!!!!
This is just WOW – Amazing and INTERESTING. Thanks.
