Angler teapot - Leonardo circa 1980

Angler teapot produced by Leonardo of Italy circa 1980. "Fly fishing may be very pleasant amusement: but angling or float fishing can only compare to a stick and string, with a worm at one end and a fool at the other." said Samuel Johnson. Angling, fishing with rod and line, is the most popular sport in Britain. An angler is one who fishes stream, lake or ocean as a hobby or as a profession. These particular anglers enjoy the sport as a pleasant pastime, relaxing in nature with the fresh air. If the fish stocks run out, at least half the pleasure will remain, communing with nature while sitting on a riverbank away from all personal troubles. A bamboo fishing pole forms the handle of the teapot and a freshly caught bass forms the spout.
