Art Deco HONOLULU Vernon Kilns Don Blanding Hawaiian Hand Tinted Floral Teapot

Description

This listing is for a very rare "Honolulu" or "Lei Lani" pattern small teapot designed by Don Blanding from the Art Deco era. It was produced around 1938.
This is hand tinted design and it is in the same design as "Lei Lani" pattern but executed in different colors.
It measures about 5.25 inches tall (including the cover) and 6.25 inches wide where the sprout to the handle. The depth is 4.25 inches.
It weighs 12.4 oz.
On the bottom, it is marked:
"Designed by Aloha Don Blanding VERNON KILNS Made in USA"
Please note the word "HONOLULU" is not on this item but on the plate in the same pattern listed separately.
A bill and a soda can are placed for size reference and not included.
Condition is previously owned but appears to be rarely use. It does not have crazing or damage. However, there are 2 darks dots on the edge of the sprout and they are under the glaze but they must be manufacturing defect.  Otherwise, it is in excellent condition including the cover.
I do not wish to take return, so please review photos and ask all the necessary questions before purchasing this item.
