From the spring firings of 2024, this large, 11" (to the top of the handle) teapot wears its smile well. The flashing slip has a rare sheen to it that I don't typically get...as well as a wonderful micro-crystalline surface mixed with the soda and ash glazing. Be ready for a VERY satisfying pour from that elongated spout. Easyily 5-6 cups of tea in this one.
