Know before you buy
No, the Chinoise Blue teapot does not feature an integrated filter. It is designed for use with tea bags or loose-leaf tea that can be strained separately.
With a 40-ounce capacity, this teapot comfortably serves approximately five to six standard 6-ounce teacups, making it well-suited for hosting small groups.
While the teapot is crafted from durable ceramic, we recommend hand washing to preserve the integrity of the finish. Please check the manufacturer's care instructions regarding microwave use to avoid potential thermal shock.
When filled to its 40-ounce capacity, the teapot will weigh approximately 3 to 4 pounds, accounting for both the ceramic construction and the weight of the water.
The handle is designed for a comfortable grip, but as with most ceramic teapots, it may become warm to the touch when the vessel is filled with boiling water. We recommend using a cloth or tea cozy if the tea has been steeping for an extended period.
