This exquisite teapot was designed by Maureen Berry using inspiration from an authentic "Young Queen Victoria" 1839-1840 oil portrait.***

Each Young Queen Victoria Teapot is hand sculpted in raised relief and trimmed in Platinum and 22k Gold.

The Young Queen Victoria Teapot is an incredible collectible, yet absolutely usable and  crafted with lead-free glazes.

Your Young Queen Victoria Teapot will be shipped to you, insured, directly from Staffordshire, England** where it is crafted and Hand Painted by the artisans at Bairstow Manor Pottery.

Each limited edition teapot is numbered; only 500 will be made!

Each teapot will be unique with the slight variations of handpainted collectibles.

These will go very quickly, and Roses and Teacups is honored to be one of only two stores (not including one on a cruise ship) carrying this amazing teapot.

So many of us picture Queen Victoria as she was in later years as a "woman of substance."  What fun to think of her as a new queen, petite and slender and just beginning a reign that would last over 60 years!  The cameo on her arm is an engagement present ~ a miniature painting of her beloved Albert!  Engagement rings were not the custom at that time.

What a splendid heirloom gift for the Victoriana admirer, and a treasured addition to your own teapot collection.  

The Queen holds 4-6 cups of tea and measures 8 1/2 inches in height and 9 inches from handle to spout.   We suggest that you gently rest your hand (in a dignified manner, of course) on Her Majesty's shoulder when pouring... one Anne Boleyn is quite enough!

Please do not place in microwave or dishwasher ~ The Queen would NOT be amused!
