Teapot

At first, it was the bold red color of this teapot that caught my eye.  I really love this deep red glaze!  But the second most appealing and most interesting element of this piece is the unique handle.  I've never seen a handle that has been connected to the spout!  I find it to be very inventive.  Were the spout and handle assembled at the same time?  I also found the lid to be aesthetically pleasing.  It is simply a rounded cover without an "eye-sore" of a nub as a pull.  Altogether, I like these different elements that make this teapot unique, though I am unsure if I would use them for my own piece.
