It's the real thing. I can tell because of the pixels.

One thing I don't think we've established throughout this. Do you actually drink tea (in a form that requires a teapot)?
How is that in any way relevant to the object above? That's like asking if you use real marmalade inside your pocketwatch.
Even if I didn't drink loose leaf tea I'd *start* just to use that pot. :-)
Whoa whoa whoa, you're not using real marmalade?
You can’t make tea inside the Utah teapot anyway because it would all fall out the bottom.
The bottom? You mean they wasted polygons on the inside as well as the outside?!
So, is it the belgian-made one? Good for actual use as teapot?
It has a bottom? BLASPHEMY!
"Teapotahedron." That is all.
Can you comb a furry teapot smooth?
Yes, it's a torus.
It has a handle, it's a double torus. I don't think you can comb a furry double torus.
Show us the bottom, jerk. ;^P
spoiler alert:
Haha... Nicely done!
Also: why are none of your shots on the sale page down the spout? ;^>
...to boldly go where no flash has gone before.
So you're saying the real world's lighting model doesn't work there? ;^>
I just looked for you and its a maddening storm of subsurface scattering actually.
Better that than a maze of twisty little passages, all alike, I suppose.
super, I see you received it! Thanks to your friend Cyan you got the very first one out of the door.
@Martin: Sure I am biased when I say it's great for tea. But I do use it for tea multiple times a week.
