There are a number of collectable tea pots with some increasing in value all the time.
One such designer is Annie Rowe who was born in Lancashire and spent her childhood in London where she later studied a four year degree in Art and Design.
She has been designing collectables for over 20 years, drawing upon her love of nature and her travels around the world.
She started her working life in publishing and advertising before using her skill to create top quality collectables.
One of my favourite tea pots of hers is from The Village Teapot Collection, Spring Cottage which you can see from the photo below.

I had lots of tea pots, they used to be on the windowsills in my pub,I didn’t have the room for them when I came out of the business and gave them to a charity shop 🙂
Oh what a shame you gave them all to a charity shop – some of them are woth a lot of money now, cest la vie I guess 🙂
What a beautiful teapot. I have a couple that are simply gorgeous and I never use them. I keep them in a hutch and look at them every now and again. Have a great evening. X
No I don’t use this one, its on my windowsill in the kitchen :)x

Thank you,it sits in my kitchen and I put 5p in it so its worth even more, lol 🙂
Lovely! I collect teapots, full sized and minature. Got three full shelves in the kitchen with mostly the minatures on and a couple of collectable ones.
Wow, three shelves , you should take a photo and put them on your blog, well done collecting all those. 🙂
Thank you and thats a good idea, I shall certainly do that! 🙂
Lovely pot. There are all sorts of teapots out there. Some are really bizarre!
Really back in fashion again now, including tea cosies. I’m still having mine from a mug though 🙂 x
In these days of teabags I lament the passing of teapots.
Me to, I do think tea is nicer from a tea pot but I guess I am just a bit lazy and still use my mug 🙂
Wow, I’ve never seen a teapot like that.
I wonder if Annie Rowe fairly prolific? Or, if a lot of her stuff was circulated…
Thanks for the post!

Yay, teapots! My grandmother has tons of those in her home, and she loves to use those during tea party afternoons with her daughters and friends. I’m certainly inviting her to our new kitchen for a cup of tea. I’m sure she’d like sharing a cup with us. =)
I’m sure she would to Robbie, she might also like my afternoon tea blog, so do show it her. Have a lovely afternoon tea and thanks for commenting 🙂
