A porcelain teapot with a lobed white body and scalloped rim. A large C-shaped handle and curved spout flank a central enamel design of a blue bird with wings spread. Green vines and red and yellow flowers surround the bird and wind across the body. Wavy green and red patterns border the top rim and the base of the spout.
