This is ... my best op shop find

Mostly I collect Agee or Crown Pyrex with coloured milk glass, but occasionally I come across a flameware piece which is so useful and so clever that I can't resist.

Case in point - my Pyrex Flameware tea pot, with infuser. From all accounts, they are hard to come by with the infuser still included. Found at the Mitchell Salvos in January for the grand total of $5.

Thanks Betty Jo! Thanks threebuttons!

  5. Ooh, it's just like the one my Oma and Opa used to use when they had tea in the raised house in Wangaratta (it had to be raised as it was on the corner opposite the meeting point of two rivers and regularly got flooded!) No idea where that teapot is now????
