A very rare Chinese porcelain teapot with intricate hand painted scenes in rich enamels against a rare blue glaze. The main body with a wrap-around scene of two dragons chasing the flaming pearl amongst the swirling white clouds. Noteably the dragons have 4 claws and incised well deffined scales. The cover has a single dragon chasing the flaming pearl and the shoulder with auspicious bats flying amongst the clouds. Has the original double twist-iron handles.
