This is a Hartley Greens & Co. Leeds Pottery creamware teapot, the "Creamware Solid" Pattern, crafted in England and marked on the base with both a printed stamp and embossed Leeds Pottery name.

Measuring approximately 8-1/2 inches (21.6 cm) in width including handle, 5.25 inches (13.3 cm) in height, and a 4-7/8 inch (12.3 cm) circumference, and measurements have been verified for accuracy, it exemplifies the refined artistry of Leeds creamware with its glossy ivory glaze and sculptural detailing. The teapot it estimated to hold about 24 ounces.

Design features:
- A spherical body with smooth, luminous creamware finish.
- An elongated spout accented with botanical relief at the base.
- A double‑looped handle with elegant curves.
- A floral finial lid, echoing natural motifs typical of Leeds designs.
Material: Fine English creamware, prized for its lightness, translucence, and warm ivory tone.
Markings: Printed Hartley Greens & Co. Leeds Pottery – Made in England and embossed Leeds Pottery on underside, confirming authenticity. The Creamware Solid pattern was introduced in 1983 and has since been discontinued, making surviving examples increasingly collectible. While the exact production date of this teapot is unknown, its markings confirm it as part of the 20th‑century revival line by Hartley Greens & Co., continuing the legacy of Leeds Pottery’s Georgian creamware.
