Miniature Agate tea pots

 

Joseph Jackson QC (decd.) owned a collection of more than 1500 miniature teapots.

He theorised that every potter had made a miniature tea pot and made it his mission to prove it.

Mr. Jackson commissioned Roger to make a miniature of every teapot that he had designed.

These agate teapots were made for him and of the 60 or so that were made most went to him.

He also commissioned a portrait pot which is illustrated, among others, in Janet Street-Porter's book on teapots.
