Antique Japanese Porcelain World\'s Fair Souvenir Teapot Columbian Expo Chicago
Price: US $483.58

Offered for sale is this antique Japanese porcelain teapot, decorated with what I think are World\'s Fair scenes. I am not an expert on World\'s Fairs, but I do know a bit about export Japanese porcelain. The buildings depicted are from the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago. The teapot is very nicely painted (note how the flowers on the top that are split between the lid and the body match up, for example). It also has 4 figural men feet. Please excuse the reflections in the pictures.The teapot is approximately 8 inches long from handle to spout. It is approximately 4.5 inches tall. There is some minor wear to the gold. There is a smooth rounded chip inside the lid (it is all smooth, it may have been made this way). Please see the close up pictures.
Both the lid and the bottom of the pot have some hand written Japanese marks, the teapot also has an impressed mark on the bottom as shown.
