Know before you buy
The 16.9-ounce capacity is designed for personal use, typically yielding about two standard teacups per full pot.
Because this teapot lacks an integrated strainer, it is best suited for tea bags or blooming teas. If you prefer loose-leaf, you will need to use a separate infuser or strain the tea as you pour.
While the high-quality porcelain is durable, we recommend hand-washing to preserve the finish and integrity of the delicate French craftsmanship over time.
As a high-quality porcelain piece, it offers moderate heat retention. For the best experience, we recommend pre-warming the pot with a splash of hot water before adding your tea.
The teapot measures 6.9 inches in length and 5.1 inches in height, making it a compact and elegant choice that won't overwhelm a small tea tray or bistro table.
