Xiem's teapot spout maker is the simplest, quickest, and most convenient way to make a perfect form-fitting spout to any shape and size teapot. Just wrap a slab of clay around one of the taper tool-ends and join the two sides by pressing them together and smooth the seamline evenly. Once stiff, it can be modified, cut and attached to the pot. It is made of solid, hard beech wood, and hand-sanded. A coat of tang oil was applied to prevent mold, termites, water and deterioration.
