    OFFERED FROM MY
    COLLECTIONS OF VINTAGE WARES
    IS A VERY
    STYLISH TEAPOT
    THAT WAS MADE BY
    UNIVERSAL POTTERIES
    FOUNDED IN
    1934 IN CAMBRIDGE, OH
    . THIS VERY COLLECTIBLE TEAPOT IS FROM THE
    BALLERINA DINNERWARE LINE
    AND WAS VERY LIKELY MANUFACTURED IN THE
    1950s DECADE
    . THIS COLOR IS KNOWN AS
    DOVE GRAY
    AND IS DECORATED WITH
    PLATINUM TRIM
    . THE DESIGN IS DISTINGUISHED BY THE
    ADDITIONAL LOOP
    BENEATH THE HANDLE. IT IS VERY
    GENEROUS IN SIZE
    AND IS
    EASY TO GRIP
    . I HOPE A COLLECTOR IS
    MISSING THE GRAY POT
    AND WILL ENJOY ADDING MINE. I AM SURE THIS LOVELY TEAPOT WILL BE A
    VERY APPRECIATED
    PRESENT FOR A
    SPECIAL PERSON
    IN YOUR CIRCLE OF
    FAMILY & FRIENDS
    . MY
    REASONABLE ASKING PRICE
    SHOULD BE AN INCENTIVE.

    THE MEASUREMENTS
    :
    Approximately 6 1/4" high to the top of the lid knob, 4 1/4" to the rim and spout tip, 4 3/4" across the opening, 9 1/4" wide handle to spout and 6" wide front to back. The capacity is about 36 ounces. The weight is just over 1 pound 12 1/2 oz. The completed carton will ship Priority insured at the 3 pound rate.
    THE CONDITION
    :
    The overall condition is excellent except for one small unseen interior chip.
    ●●●
    Please allow the photos to guide you as they are the lion’s share of this description.
    ●●●
    This is what I see: there are a few light handling marks on the exterior; there is a little light crazing here and there; there is a spider web crazed area on the interior wall; there is a small chip on the inside of the pot rim [can be smoothed and filled] and lastly there is a little table friction on the base ring.
    ●●●
    I hope I have not missed anything. If I did, it was surely minor and 100% unintentional.
    ●●●
    Just about
    99%
    of the collectibles I offer are
    vintage/pre-owned
    and may show a small amount of use. I never list items with
    serious damage
    or
    flaws
    . I often
    heighten
    the
    contrast
    in my pictures to bring out all the details. The color you see may be slightly
    brighter
    or
    different
    than it actually is. Please
    inquire
    if you are
    concerned
    .

    Global Shipping Program
    .
    ●●●
    There is
    no handling fee

    VERY IMPORTANT
    ●●● Due to new internet tax laws, eBay calculates, collects and remits sales tax on behalf of sellers for items shipped to customers in the following states: AL, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MS, NE, NV, NJ, NM, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, PR, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, VA, WA, WV, WI & WY.

    An important note to my valued bidders
    :
    Please be advised that clicking a
    ●●●
    score of 4
    ●●●
    is
    unsatisfactory
    according to
    eBay's seller standards
    and is
    considered a negative
    , so a
    ●●●
    rating of 5
    ●●●
    across the board is what
    I always strive to achieve
    . After you have received and examined your item, if you feel I have not earned a 5 star rating in any of the categories, please
    contact me immediately
    through the "Contact Seller" tab and allow me to correct anything you think is
    ●●●
    less than promised
    .
    ●●●
    Please understand
    that when I use the
    shipping calculator
    it is for your convenience so you can
    approximate
    how much you will be adding to your bid. It is just an
    estimate
    determined by weighing a partially packed item. It makes no sense for me to complete a box not knowing if the item will actually be sold. Most of the time the amount is correct but occasionally, after securely packing the item, the weight brings the shipping charge to the
    next pound cut-off point
    . Sometimes the box weighs less than anticipated! In order to
    prevent an error
    it is important to
    wait for my contact letter and invoice
    .
    The
    continually rising postal rates
    have created a difficult situation for sellers. I have
    no control
    over the price of shipping. If your zip code is far from my location please check the cost before bidding. Please note that I
    ship very promptly
    but sometimes the mail service is
    not as fast
    as anticipated. If you are the
    winner
    please take this into consideration when using the
    5 star rating system
    . Thanks……….ppaacckkrraatt

    Non-domestic bidders
    ,
    please
    do not request
    a
    falsified customs slip
    . Items will be identified as
    eBay merchandise
    with a
    value
    reflecting the
    winning bid
    price. Please be aware that you are

    Feedback
    is a key
    indicator
    of a buyer's or seller's
    reputation
    and is very
    important
    to
    exchange
    . Positive feedback tells me that your shipment
    arrived safely
    and that you are a
    happy buyer
    . In the
    unlikely
    event that there is a
    problem
    with your shipment please

    IMPORTANT
    !
    If you are the
    winner
    of my auction(s) or have asked a
    question
    and I have not contacted you please note that my
    computer
    is on the
    Cable System Internet
    which goes down occasionally, especially during
    icy weather
    or
    thunder storms
    . Sometimes we totally
    lose electricity
    which can take the technicians many hours to repair. In addition, my
    mac
    could get a..........
    headache
    and need to go to the
    apple hospital
    ! I currently do not have any additional
    internet connecting devices
    . Please be
    patient
    ! If this happens I will be back online ASAP.
