A pitcher between a tea pot and caddy. The pitcher has an oval-shaped body with a high loop handle, a narrow neck and spout, and rests on a pedestal foot. The body is marbleized and decorated with a patterned band. The tea pot features two figures beneath a tree in relief, and has a pierced lid with a handle in the shape of a reclining lion. The tea caddy is decorated with a relief figure inside an oval medallion. The corners and lid feature garlands of ribbons and leaves in relief.
