Bring a little good-luck charm to tea time with this Lucky Cat or Maneki Neko! This irresistible ceramic teapot (or creamer) is sculpted as a white cat cradling a koi fish— the fish doubles as the pour spout and the cat’s head is a removable lid. Sweet hand-painted details and scattered gold floral accents finish the look. Tail-handle makes pouring easy, and it displays beautifully when not in use.
