G'day All, The teapot above ended up selling for the equivalent of 58 aussie dollars. But don't fret! If you missed out, here's a chance to redeem yourself with a set of salt & pepper shakers... ...looks like another aspect of vintage caravan collecting to be explored... cheers, Al.

No, unfortunately both items relate to UK ebay. They seem to get heaps better caravan stuff listed over there than we do here. The salt 'n pepper item is # 300138924588 and the seller will post to Australia.
Good luck if you go for it.
cheers, Al.

anyone for a cup of tea ? I got my dad to pick one up for me while he was on holidays in England from The Teapottery in North Yorkshire. Saved me a fortune in postal costs ;D Had it customized with the caravans name printed on it . So it is .... unique,one of a kind,individual,the only one in the world,classic, collectable(?) and it's all mine ;D ;D ;D next time he goes for a holiday I must get him to pick me up one of the really cool looking jukebox teapots (HELP... as if FCs and caravans weren't enough ....I think I'm becoming a teapot junkie.....I can't stop at just one )

Due to popular demand I'm resurrecting this 2007 thread by showing a "Caravan Teapot & Salt and Pepper set" we picked up during our recent tour to WA. It was found by Di & Ralph at Geraldton and shown to us during the tour. Distributed by a WA company I got in touch with them and they sent it to me by overnight courier and we received it while visiting friends at Albany. The next one we've had for a few years. But I don't like it much because ....... It's been modified for commercial purposes Cobber.

Hi all, Intrigued with the caravan salt and pepper shakers Cobber showed us, I went searching and found them at www.somethingscountry.com in Kingaroy - arrived in about 3 days! They also have the teapots too I think. And Cobber, always remember - imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Don Ricardo

Can't sleep so I thought I'd do something useful Can't believe nobody has made a 'Driftwood' teapot............yet, but I found a few others. An English Burleigh Ware 1930s caravan set, teapot, milk jug, sugar bowl. The teapot. The next two are actually the same teapot, just different colours. They are available to buy HERE (as are a few of the others ) at 'The Teapottery' in the UK Some teapots are available in different colours Not exactly caravan teapots, but attractive just the same. An Airstream. This one is an Australian real live caravan.... made to look like a teapot. For commercial purposes. NO . ...... I didn't buy 'em, I'm just showing you some of what's available ........... Cobber.

If you have a knitter in your family, here is the link to a pattern for a vintage cravan tea cosy www.teacosyfolk.co.uk/vintage-caravan-tea-cosy-p-193.phpIf you want to pay somebody to make one, realise that it will take hours and hours of their time. The website for the pattern had a price of £32.95 for ready-made cosies, and that would still be a fairy low hourly rate
