Solitaire Teapot

This is a fun little teapot made by Royal Vienna in the 18th century. Not sure if the number is a date code or another number. Likely from a solitaire or a bachelor tea pot. It is hand painted with a nice floral arrangement to the front and back as a couple of single small flowers and a really nice gold trim. The lid has three small single flowers to it as well as the same gold trim. Nice ahndle and spout shape with some nice gilding to them as well! The pot is in good condition but has some issues. There are two small chips to the bottom edge of the main body which could be hidden well with a touch of gilding. The lid has some chips to the edge as shown. Mainly in one area which could be restored quite easily. The teapot is 4 inches tall (including the finiale), 5.125 inches from handle to spout end and about 3.5 inches in diameter. The bottom is marked with the under glaze beehive / shield mark as well as an impressed number - it could be an 85 for 1785 but I think this piece was made before they used the date codes and it is probably a 35 person that made the teapot. Please email me for more information or photos.

Price is $299
