Is there anything more reassuring and comforting than a cup of tea? I think not and perhaps that's part of the reason why teapots are such popular collectibles.
Collectible teapots can range from fun/cartoony to elaborate antiques worth thousands of dollars. There is something for every taste in decorating, every personality in collecting and every budget.
