A round, ribbed stoneware teapot from Bloomingville, with fine vertical lines that run up the body and carry on into the lid, so the whole pot reads as one smooth shape. The glaze varies a little from pot to pot, and the rounded handle gives a comfortable grip even when it is full.

Bloomingville call this colour rose, but in person it reads as more of a soft lilac than a pink, so it sits beautifully alongside greys, creams and other pale pastels. It holds 1085ml, around four good mugs, which makes it the right size for a proper pot with friends at the weekend.
