Leonardo Collection Cottage Core Teapot

This is a highly decorative, small-scale teapot from the Leonardo Collection, designed in a whimsical 'cottage core' style. The piece is crafted from glazed ceramic and shaped to resemble a pair of adjoining thatched-roof cottages. Its primary colors include cream for the walls, tan and brown for the textured thatch, and blue for the window panes. The handle and spout are cleverly integrated into the design as climbing vines with green leaves, and a small black bird perched near the top of the handle serves as a charming detail. The base is decorated with delicate molded flowers and garden elements, adding to its pastoral aesthetic. Two chimneys at the top of the lids act as handles for the openings. The craftsmanship shows attention to detail in the molded textures of the roof and the painted window frames. Condition-wise, the item appears to be in good vintage condition with no visible cracks or heavy chips from this angle, though a light crazing or minor patina might be expected given its likely manufacturing date in the late 20th century (circa 1980s-1990s). It serves as both a functional teapot and a popular collectible figurine.
