North America, United States, 2000. Signed "Hatton 2000 USA" on underside of teapot. A colorful ceramic elephant carrying a ceramic lidded teapot with two intriguing hybrid frog-men sitting upon the elephant's back, directly below the front and rear ends of the teapot. The elephant is elaborately decorated with a fancy headdress and saddle as if participating in a festive processional.
