Child's toy teapot lid with green band




Child's toy teapot lid, white to ivory in color with a green band along the rim. Its outer diameter measures about 2-1/4", and its nesting flange measures about 1-3/8". The lid comes to you in very good vintage condition, with just one 1/4" chip along the catch--otherwise no visible chips or cracks. There is also a tiny brown mark on the top--this appears to be a manufacturing glitch.
