The Tetley Tea Folk Teapot
This quirky Teapot is made by Fee Fee La Fou Enterprises.
It is signed & numbered by the artist.
A tribute to Claes Oldenburg’s oversized sculptures, compulsive hoarders & the Tetley Tea Folk who entertained us in the 1980’s.
Please note it is to be used as a decorative ornament only, as it’s too heavy to be used as a functional teapot.
Please also note that due to its weight & fragile nature this item will need to be delivered by courier services & additional charges will apply. Please contact after purchasing the item to confirm transport costs & discuss delivery options or in advance for a quote.
Due to the delicate nature of the materials used, please dust with a light feather duster to clean it.
It is a 4 Cup Teapot.

Fiona Duffelen is a multi disciplinary artist who loves to paint, print, collage, sculpt & sew. She exhibited her work internationally before setting up her studio in Hackney Wick.
Her alter ego Miss Fee Fee La Fou is the Founder & Ringmaster of this three-ring spectacle.
She was the first Sprechstallmeister to wear pink top hat & tails.
The daughter of Leonard Zelig, a mimic, she has been dubbed the Human Chameleon for she has an extraordinary hidden talent – the ability to blend almost seamlessly into intricate backgrounds with careful application of body paint & a bit of acrobatics.
She studies her chosen location for hours before painting herself or other subjects to blend in, taking both texture & perspective into account in order to ensure the complete success of this unusual disappearing act!
Her dressing room Dreamland is a neon nirvana; a cornucopia of kitsch for it contains thousands of pieces of original neon art including a miniature replica of Vegas & Arthur Windley’s miniature funfair, which he built for his own amusement, in his garden shed over a 40-year period.
