Estate fresh, this Hop Scotch turquoise teapot is in beautiful condition, no chips, cracks, or repairs; one tiny glaze miss on the extremely lower edge of the spout, looks like a tiny brown spot measuring only 1mm.  Created by noted designer Viktor Schreckengost for Salem China's Free Form line, this is truly an amazing piece and is the holy grail of MCM dishes.  With its small feet and canted angle, it looks like it just wants to walk away on its own, right out of a Tim Burton movie.  See the matching sugar bowl and creamer in other listings.
