This is a Royal Patrician, England teapot shaped bone china tea bag holder or teabag caddy.

The little teapot shaped dish is .75 inch high by 4.5 inches long by 3.25 inches wide with a pattern of multi colored pansies or violas.

The teabag holder was made in 2006 and is no longer available because the pottery has closed and is in excellent, mint unused condition.

Although not marked Royal Patrician, it was made by their successor at the pottery, and within a few months had designed their new mark of Crown Dorset.

A cute way to keep drips off the table cloth while you park your tea bag!
