Time for some afternoon tea

This double-spouted teapot has a partition down the middle of the body, and was designed so you can serve two different kinds of tea at once, keeping your guests happy whatever their preference.

It’s crafted from porcelain, and was made in the 1760s in the Bow Porcelain Factory in London.
