Imperial Porcelain Kell, Cocoon Teapot 3 Cup - First Quality Cobalt Unused

This beautiful piece is entirely hand painted. The cobalt blue is one of the factory's signature colors. It is so vibrant and beautiful! The gorgeous swooping cobalt and 22 karat gold lines are a visual delight. This classic teapot is a bright, colorful handiwork by a master from the Imperial Porcelain Factory. The teapot is made in accordance with the old technologies of the Russian porcelain enterprise (the largest in Russia and Europe). The decor is made by hand using overglaze and underglaze painting. The bright, attractive pattern is ideally combined with the snow-white porcelain, emphasizing its beauty and pleasant shape. When I purchased this teapot it was called "Kell". I have not found another Kell teapot. The copies that were produced after 2005 changed the pattern name to Cocoon. You can purchase copies through Amazon but they do not sell the vintage original. Measurements: Length 7.9", width 5", height 6.3". Pattern: Cocoon (Kell previous to 2005) Pattern designer: G.Shulyak Shape: Spring Shape designer: S.Yakovleva It has the red LFZ monogram export backstamp with red "Made in Russia" used from 1991 to 2002. It is also stamped with 1C, which means First Quality. Due to the hand painted aspect it is recommended that the porcelain be hand washed in warm water with mild detergent. The pieces are all unused, in new condition, no chips, marks, nits etc.
