Sticking out of the dirt at a big construction site, Was told it was granite ware?
Cute lil thing. Instead of a spout it is like a strainer on the front.

I'm pretty sure the spout has been broken off at some point in its life. Most tea pots have a strainer inside to help prevent the spout from becoming cloged.

it almost lloks like there was a spout on it, above the strainer, there is a rusted spot that might be were a spout was welded on, tacked on.
From what I understand, this finish is very hard to find, kinda rare.
Neat little piece though, wish it was complete.
