Antique Chinese Pewter Teapot Swing Handle Chased Grasses Chinoiserie Small 3in

Antique pewter teapot features a hand-chiseled floral design, likely depicting orchids or similar botanical elements, across the front of the rounded body. The metal has a heavy, textured patina consistent with age and use, giving it a rustic, primitive aesthetic. It includes a matching lid with a twig-style finial and a stationary dark metal overhead handle. The construction is substantial and weighted, typical of traditional pewter ware. While the maker's mark on the bottom is worn and illegible, the overall craftsmanship suggests an early to mid-20th-century origin, possibly Asian in influence given the motif and vessel shape.
