This rare Via Ancona Teapot is an elegant white enamel with antique gold finish trim whistling kettle with a 2.5 qt capacity, perfect for brewing tea or coffee. Manufactured by House Blend in 1998, this stylish kettle is a classic collectible piece that adds a touch of elegant charm to any kitchen. Its formal design and functionality make it a practical and aesthetically pleasing addition to your home. I purchased it in 2000 and never used it. There is damage on one side of the box where 2 labels were, shown in photos. The cover for the spout needs to be opened manually. It is not attached to the handle.
