Know before you buy
Yes, both the glass teapot and the stainless steel strainer are dishwasher safe, making cleanup straightforward.
The strainer features a fine permanent mesh designed to hold most loose-leaf teas effectively. However, if you are brewing very fine dust or fannings, some small particles may occasionally pass through.
The small version holds 450mL (approximately 15 ounces), while the large version holds 700mL (approximately 23.67 ounces). Choose the size based on whether you typically brew for yourself or for a small group.
Yes, it is crafted from high-quality heatproof glass designed to withstand the thermal shock of boiling water. While it is durable, it should still be handled with the same care as any other glass kitchenware.
Absolutely. The stainless steel strainer is removable, allowing you to use the glass pot as a carafe for blooming teas or other beverages where you want to showcase the visual aesthetic.
The handle is ergonomically designed to provide a secure and comfortable grip, even when the teapot is filled to capacity.
