Teapot

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The teapot by artist Leach, is a rounded, bulbous kettle made of dark-colored metal, likely cast iron or steel. The kettle has a shiny surface with visible scratches and marks. The teapot has a short, curved spout on the right side. The lid is domed with a rounded knob on top. The handle is made of metal and is attached to the sides of the teapot with two brackets; it is arched over the top and features ridged sections near the base. The background is plain and light-colored.
