While the decorative motifs are very much in
             the  same  vane  as  the  previous  box,
             stylistically  this  small  teapot  is  in  a  highly
             unusual  square  form  and  the  addition  and
             style of the rosewood handle gives this item
             an  incongruously  Art  Deco  style  that  is  at
             odds with the traditional decoration. One can
             assume  this  featured  at  the  1931  Paris
             Exposition.

             The teapot is only 10cm high.
