<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 542235, member: 308&quot;]You rang?&nbsp; Peggy is spot on - it is mold 576 and the decoration is Reflecting Water Lilies.&nbsp; It&#039;s a popular decoration.&nbsp; Does the lid fit snugly?&nbsp; I ask because the lid may be correct.&nbsp; The color seems to follow onto the lid.&nbsp; It is not the usual lid for this teapot but it is an RS Prussia lid and I was able to find that lid on a syrup pitcher in mold 631 with the same Reflecting Water Lilies decoration.&nbsp; (see RS Prussia Popular Lines by Gaston, pg. 537 on pg. 249 to see the syrup.)&nbsp; I also found two Mold 576 teapots and a sugar bowl in one of my books but they all have the tops as shown in the Worthpoint example.&nbsp; (see RS Prussia:&nbsp; The Art Nouveau Years by Leland &amp; Carol Marple, pg. 74, plates 319, 320 and 321).&nbsp; Someone may have married the two but I think it&#039;s at least remotely possible that RS Prussia used more than one lid for mold 576.&nbsp; They would save money where they could.&nbsp; It would require more research I&#039;m afraid.&nbsp; Anyway, that&#039;s how I would describe it if selling.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve bought RS Prussia teapots with spout chips myself if they are cheap enough.&nbsp; I always think I&#039;ll have them repaired but I never do.&nbsp; Somehow I forget they are there after awhile.&nbsp; It will be a tough resell though.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
