Give this Japanese teapot with an infuser as a thoughtful gift to a friend, loved one, or tea connoisseur. The ergonomic fold-down handle and shortly curved spout allow for easy grip and convenient pouring. Made from durable cast iron, this teapot for loose leaf tea is an ideal alternative to traditional porcelain, stainless steel, and aluminum teapots. Please note: this blue teapot is stovetop safe but must be filled with water prior to boiling. For best results, heat water into a separate vessel, then pour it into the cast iron teapot warmer to keep hot.
