Know before you buy
The integrated ceramic strainer is designed for standard loose-leaf teas. If you are brewing very fine tea dust or rooibos, you may experience some sediment in your cup.
No, the teapot should be hand washed only. The wooden handle and lid peg are not dishwasher safe and may warp or degrade if exposed to high heat and moisture cycles.
The 24 fl oz capacity typically serves about three standard 8-ounce cups of tea, making it an ideal size for a small gathering or a long afternoon of reading.
The wooden handle is a structural component of the design. While it is securely attached for pouring, it is not intended to be removed for cleaning.
Yes, the lid features a wooden peg that helps secure it to the teapot. However, as with most ceramic teapots, it is best to hold the lid gently with your thumb while pouring to ensure it remains stable.
