Teapot Museums


If you get all worked up over teapots and the like you'll probably be happy to know about the Sparta Teapot Museum, in Sparta, North Carolina. The museum, which isn't open yet, is expected to show off thousands of teapots, including - presumably - the colorful one pictured here.

You can read about the museum in this article from World Magazine. The tone's not upbeat, since the article's about wasteful government spending, but it's informative nonetheless.

If one teapot museum isn't enough for you, then try the British Twining Teapot Gallery, which boasts more than 3,000 pots, or the Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware, located in Hong Kong.
