This Whieldon type teapot, made between 1745 and 1775, is a fine example of 18th-century English earthenware. The teapot is molded in the shape of a pineapple, a popular motif at the time, and features a distinctive lead-glazed surface with a yellow body and green leaves. This piece is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, NY. Whieldon type teapots were commonly made in Staffordshire, England, and are prized for their intricate details and functional design.
