Know before you buy
This kettle is designed for traditional stovetop use, but it is not suitable for induction cooktops. We recommend using it on gas or electric stoves with a heat diffuser if necessary to protect the ceramic base.
Ceramic is a porous material that can absorb the scent and chemical residue of soaps. Rinsing with hot water is sufficient to keep the kettle clean and ensures that no unwanted flavors are transferred to your tea.
The 1.3L capacity represents the total volume of the kettle. For safe boiling and to prevent splashing, we recommend filling it slightly below the maximum capacity.
Ceramic retains heat differently than metal, providing a more stable and gentle temperature throughout the brewing process. This helps in extracting the nuanced flavors of delicate tea leaves without the metallic interference sometimes found in stainless steel kettles.
As each piece is individually handcrafted by Petr Sklenička, there may be slight variations in the glaze and finish. These unique characteristics are a hallmark of the artisanal process and ensure your kettle is one-of-a-kind.
