As accessories, collectible teapots can live in multiple rooms.
Collectible teapots and bracket shelves are meant for each other somehow. This combination might be called old fashioned or sweet — particularly with a Neoclassical Swedish half-moon style table in the mix. I feel it also can have a cottage look. No matter. For me, teapots can be utilitarian or collectible, or both. I adore their fanciful shapes, the great colors and designs and new and old boy shapes.
These wall brackets are relatively simple with tops that have an ogee edge. As such they could be considered modern — or at least as modern as wall brackets can be. The display is painted in Farrow & Ball’s Borrowed Light, a pale baby blue. The table is Gustavian gray which helps give the display a particularly Scandinavian look. Switch out the table, change the color of the paneling or a different selection of teapots and the very same wall could take on a completely different character.

Awww. So cute. I immediately got this whole Beauty and the Beast vibe.
I’ve never seen bracket shelves used to display teapots but this is so pretty!
I love the teapot display! I have a few that I have collected over the years and this would be a sweet way to display them! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog, Jane! I appreciate your comments on my bathroom makeover!
Teapots! More teapots! My boyfriend would love this, he says we’ve got too many at four, but he’s so wrong, and you’re right…
