Laurel 98 on base

Body of teapot is cylindrical and made to look like a red bard with windows, a chicken, a rabbit and a dog play near the bottom. A bird flies in the foreground. Sunflowers bloom at its base. A ladder runs up one side. Teapot has acrylic wings affixed to each side. The paper used for this is from an old Fisher Price corn silo toy. Spout and lid are made of a heavy metal. Spout has a ladder-like appearance with a star-shaped opening. A flag flies from the center of the lid. The base is metal with red wave-shaped legs. A star is visible in the middle of the base.
