LOL - had to chuckle about this because I have two antique neti pots in my stock. My customers always shirked at me when I explained what they were actually for. And my 5yr old granddaughter actually thinks they are the perfect tea pot for her doll tea parties! Being white china they are easy to clean. And the Victorians were certainly way ahead of our time when it comes to homeopathic, natural health care!

OMG Barb..... I just realized I have some of these.... I swore they were for a cup of tea!!!!! It never dawned on me what they were. I only just recently found out from Jane that there even was such a thing. I have a china closet with antique Neti pots..... who knew !!! LOL :)

There is such an item as an invalid server that also looks like the neti pot shape.  Your fancy blue - man that looks like Meissen -  is probably that.

The neti pot for the sinus flush was mostly plain and simple.

Ah, tis the season again..........

I have to be honest, we always called these invalid feeders, not neti pots.

Maybe they served a dual purpose.

I have been using a neti pot for 2 years now, thanks to Dr Oz when he was on the Oprah show.

I use it mostly in the Winter months to keep my sinuses from becomiong too dry due to gas heat.

I love Dr Oz :-) No, not the Wizard of Oz, Dr Oz, teeheeeeeeee
