Add a touch of culture to your tea-making with the beautiful teapot - perfect for any discerning tea lover. Cast iron is renowned for its ability to evenly distribute heat for a more flavourful cup of tea. Featuring a mesh infuser insert, it gives you the freedom to brew your favourite loose tea or use tea bags. Traditional hobnail effect and over-arching handle creates an elegant addition to any table top. During the 17th and 18th centuries, cast iron tea pots were placed over an open charcoal fire to keep water warm, which was believed to slowly release iron into the water, providing drinkers with a dietary source. This, combined with sophisticated intricate designs, led to huge popularity - popularity which remains to this very day. The teapot features a Japanese influenced hobnail design, adding a touch of charm to your kitchen counter. Its cast iron construction absorbs heat, keeping your tea warm for a long while. It is multiuse, and can be used with the stainless steel mesh infuser for loose leaf tea, without the infuser for tea bags, or simply as a stovetop kettle to boil water. Complete with a rustic rope effect handle, brew it your way. This makes a perfect present for tea lovers, with a 0.8L 4 cup capacity and delivered in a gift box.
