My love of novelty teapots started when I first visited the old Cardew teapottery factory in Bovey Tracey, Devon. I was about twelve years old and was instantly captivated by all the intricate little details on the teapots and the extensive range of designs.
Intrigued by how they were made, I came away with my very own little teapot - this Victorian wash stand one cup design - and the behind the scenes booklet, which I studied at length.
