This rare Takito teapot is a highly unusual design and also comes with the matching trivet.  The spout and lid handle feature gold dragons.  The body of the teapot is also the body of the dragon.  All hand painted and Made in Japan.  Glorious condition for it's age which I estimate to be from the 1920's to 1940's.  No cracks or chips on any of the pieces.  There is some loss of luster on the gold due to age.  The rest of the paint is very, very nice.  The teapot and the trivet are both clearly market with the TT in the diamonds.  The specifics are as follows:

8 inches from top of lid to bottom with trivet.
10 inches from outside of handle to end of dragon spout.
 5 1/2 inches deep (Not quite round).
1 lb. 7.8 ozs.
