Antique Chinese Tea Pot

This item is a vintage Chinese brass and porcelain teapot, featuring intricate metal overlay, a dragon handle, and hand-painted enamel figures. The body is made of hand-painted porcelain or enamel on a base metal, likely brass or a silver-plated alloy, which frames the panels and forms the handle and spout. These marks are characteristic of items made for export during periods such as the late 19th or early 20th century.
