Even though there are probably better teapot collections in more conventional places (Europe comes to mind), this one deserves a mention as it is one of the most random. The Teapot Museum in Trenton, Tennessee holds the world’s largest collection of Veilleuse-Theieres porcelain dating from 1750 to 1860. A gynecologist donated his 650 teapots to the city in the 1950s. Every spring there is a week-long teapot festival, which includes a parade and the lighting of the teapots.
