Tea enthusiasts choose our Tetsubin Prosperity Teapot for the superior tea-enriching qualities of brewing with a cast iron teapot. Non-tea enthusiasts still choose our Tetsubin Prosperity Teapot -- for its strikingly beautiful and ornate black cast iron construction. Inspired by traditional Japanese teaware, this 34-ounce Tetsubin teapot is expertly crafted from heavyweight black cast iron. Cast iron absorbs and retains heat longer than materials like porcelain, ceramic, or glass -- ensuring that your tea will stay hot and delicious. Plus, the even heat retention of cast iron allows for you to brew more flavorful and well-balanced pots of tea. For convenient brewing of bagged or loose teas, this Tetsubin Prosperity Teapot comes with a strainer basket for easy steeping. Complete your stylish tea set by pairing this 34-ounce cast iron teapot with infuser together with our coordinating Tetsubin Hobnail Black Cast Iron Tea Cups (RWM0023B). Tea cups sold separately.
