HALL BASKET TEAPOT delphinium blue and platinum HALL Basket teapot delphinium blue and platinum CONDITION.. Absolutely NO FAULTS this one appears as though unused and it is in pristine collector condition I will be listing three of these Novelty line basket teapots today. I used to collect these and often saw crazy prices on the platinum ones. This one is just incredible in terms of condition and the platinum is 100% Just a great example and in a tougher to find combination. MARKED as PICTURED all teapots 6 cup unless stated otherwiseNo sun today I had to take pics indoors so I have posted at least one good pic using whatever outdoor light I could get to show color SCROLL DOWN to see other picsI disclose EVERYTHING I see so there will be no surprises..The Hall teapot collection. A bit of HistoryThe collection was purchased in it's entirety, The good, the bad the ugly and the exceedingly RARE and valuable. It will be sold at random I will not take requests or change the way I am used to doing things I will unpack each box (over 15 large boxes weighing almost 35 lbs each), I will wash lightly for photos, check if there have been any repairs or any damages and list them. The teapots and other Hall China were found in the summer home of a Massachusetts Collector the collection was started before the first Hall book was written and continued for years. There are well over 100 teapots and some assorted casseroles pitchers etc. The group had been offered privately in it's entirety for an undisclosed price with no takers and it found it's way to an auction where it was sold as one lot. Included in all states and conditions were 9 worlds fair teapots, ten automobile teapots, five donut teapots, eight melody teapots, eleven Ronald Raegan teapots, several airflow, star, thorley, regal, Boston, twinspout, and on and on...many in desirable colors and at times multiples of rare forms. All items are FRESH to the market they have not been previously offered for sale. The starting prices are based on realistic wholesale or less prices. I am starting some at 9.99 and others as much as 99.99 I do not use Buy it Now so you must bid on my auctions. I generally have a 99% ratio of what I list to what sells so my staring prices make everything available at way under the normal marketplace prices. I took this on as a project with a friend who I bought out of the project. In the case of this collection I am now OWNER so I am not selling for anyone else. This is a rare adventure for me as I usually sell for ESTATES, COLLECTORS and friends and I usually sell on commission. I know my regulars will support my efforts here and I want all to have fun while watching these Hall auctions. It is important that you are Happy customer I as a Collector want no surprises and you can be sure I will do my best to describe honestly. My knowledge of Hall teapots In the early 1990's I started my own collection of Hall teapots, it went something like this.My grandfather had Hall refrigerator wear in his refrigerator that I eventually inherited from the trash can in the early 1970's When he passed, I liked the colors and did not want to see it thrown away over the next 20 years I picked up a piece here and there in my antiquing haunts, my flea market visits and house sale adventures. I never really thought much about it, I liked the colors, it was always cheap to purchase (under my $20 rule), and it looked good together. I often bought large bowls and things that I used in the kitchen. I liked making pots of soup and often invited friends over and we used the Hall bowls. I still have a few dozen and still use them daily. Sometime in the 1990's I came across a small paperback book about Hall pottery. It is the book that led me to teapots, I already owned a few but having a road map to the styles and forms I wanted to add more. By 2004 I had accumulated more then 700 teapots. I was friendly with all of the Hall dealers, I went to the Conventions, and made Hall Collector friends and I was known as the Refrigerator ware expert.... read more
