The teapot is rectangular-shaped with cut away corners, the base is smaller than the upper section and the top is recessed and rounded. The spout is stubby and the handle has a straight edge with concave thumbrest and curved tow. The whole is decorated with a blue and white transfer-print of a woven pattern which is interspersed with floral motifs. There are two large cartouche shaped transfer-printed scene on the sides, one of which shows the bridges of the River Tyne and the other showing the exhibition buildings on the banks of the River Tyne. There are smaller cartouches on two sides of the neck, one of which shows the coat of arms of the City of Newcastle upon Tyne, the other an inscription relating to the event commemorated.
