Iron kettles, or tetsubin, were originally used in Japanese homes to boil water. During the mid-19th century, tea drinking became more popular and tetsubin evolved from being regular kitchen items to status symbols used for serving and pouring tea. The area of Iwate in northern Japan is the most famous for crafting tetsubin.
This premium black iron teapot is a wonderful example of that cultural and artistic tradition. Sleek and elegant, the pot is fixed with a handle and comes with a detachable diffuser. With spout, pot is 7.5 inches wide, 5.5 inches tall, and 5 inches deep. Weighs about 3 lbs. Please note, this item is for serving and pouring and is not intended for placing on a hot stove.
