Don't be fooled by the delicate appearance of this handsome teapot, it's actually crafted of industrial strength heat resistant borosilicate glass. It is rigorous enough to withstand temperature changes from -68 degrees Fahrenheit to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. This durability helps guard against cracking, without sacrificing the transparency of the glass. This pot does not have an infuser. Instead it has a coiled filter attached to the inner spout. So, your tea leaves can move around freely in the pot and you'll get a good infusion. However, the leaves will not escape into your cup when the tea is poured. In addition, a very important part of judging the quality of any tea involves appraising the clarity and color of the brew; this glass teapot is ideal for the job. The perfect balance of convenience and creativity. The woven fold-down handle and the coiled filter are made of stainless steel and are removable. Teapot body is approximaely 3.0" wide x 5.5" tall and has a 12oz capacity, enough for two 6oz cups of tea. Although heat resistant, the glass is not shatter proof so take care when handling. Dishwasher safe, but not made for stove top or microwave use. Remember, glass conducts heat, so exercise caution when pot is filled with hot water. 12oz/360ml. $15.00 |
