Hall China Tea and Coffee Pots: The First 100 Years (Schiffer Book for Collectors with Price Guide)

Full of colorful photos of every tea and coffee pot that Hall has produced - including those from special designers and those for special groups. An excellent resource for collectors, with details such as the different sizes, colors, and decorations available for each shape, as well as a brief history and the bottom mark it should have.One caveat: the "Price Guide" only covers the exact pot shown in each photo. So the New York teapot, shown in Chinese Red with a price of $175-200, can be misleading because the red pots generally have a higher price than less dramatic colors.A caveat to that caveat: if you check New York in the (very comprehensive) Index, you will find nearly 40 references from other sections of the book. When you find a photo of a New York pot with another style decoration, it will also show that price. You just have to work a little harder to find what you're looking for.Overall, a very comprehensive resource, one that I'm very pleased to have found.

My sister-in-law collects Hall teapots, specifically, the Aladdin ones. We purchased this book as a Christmas present, and she was so excited to see the photos and the descriptions of the Aladdin teapots and the other styles that have been designed by Hall. It was absolutely the best gift ever.

Great informational book. I have a few teapots, great deal!!!

Great book for those who collect Hall tea or coffee pots. Not every piece could be covered as Hall produced many pieces. Enough were pictured to make this book worth the money spent.
