Teal Blue Round Cross-Section Reassembled
Ring Teapot
10" tall x 12" wide x 9" deep
I often cut apart the leather-hard ring without a resolved plan
of how I am going to complete the reassembly process. In this case
I cut the ring into six arc sections, and assembled five of them
end-to-end, but couldn't figure out how to complete the composition
in a harmonious whole. I finally added the last arc section, which
is shown in the photo nearest the camera in the lower left. This
allowed the composition to lift off the table and pose lightly on
three points without an added base. I added the teapot finial, shaped
like a boat sail, to a trapdoor lid cut out of the top of the central
arc section, and put the handle behind it and the spout in front.
It now looks like I meant to make it just like this from the start!
This teapot is for sale.
