| The lotus, flower of summer, is a symbol of sacred beauty, purity and perfection. This teapot's handle represents the stem of the lotus flower, and a lotus blossom forms the body of the pot. Perched on the lid of this dark jade teapot is a frog, regarded as most auspicious and conductive to good fortune, surrounded by a ring of lotus seeds. Each seed represents the blessing of an obedient son. |
