Product Description
Old Dutch 34-Ounce Cast-Iron Prosperity Teapot, Mustard: Kitchen & Dining. After use, the pot is best cared for when rinsed and dried by hand before storing. Old Dutch cast-iron teapots combine traditional Japanese styling and a modern aesthetic that result in very evocative shapes. Holding 34 ounces, the Prosperity teapot forms a dome shape, much like an upside-down bowl, balanced by a graceful spout and arching handle. The textured surface, available in a choice of colors, takes on a weathered appearance and displays a cast, bas-relief design of twining vines. With its pleasing heft and calming presence, Prosperity lends quiet contemplation to the act of making tea. Iron teapots traditionally used in Japan are known as tetsubin, which were used to boil water as well as brew tea. However, the Prosperity teapot is meant just for brewing, not for boiling on a stovetop. Old Dutch uses a specially purified cast iron for its teapots, and coats the insides with black enamel to help prevent rusting. Unlike ceramic teapots, the heavy cast iron retains heat wonderfully and won't chip. A stainless-steel infusing basket that hangs from the rim is included to facilitate brewing with loose tea leaves.
