Cast Iron Teapot with Gold-Tone Accents

• Before first use, rinse with hot water.
• Hand wash with warm water only. No soap and no dishwasher.
• Empty and dry completely after each use, ideally while still warm.
• Don't leave water sitting inside, because cast iron can rust.
• The handle and lid get hot during use. Use a cloth or mitt.
• Stovetop kettles: heat on low to medium and never heat the kettle empty. Check the product details above to see whether your piece is stovetop safe.

Can I put my teapot on the stove?
It depends on the piece. Our Cast Iron Stovetop Tea Kettle is made for induction, gas, electric ceramic and open flame. Our cast iron and glass teapots are for brewing: heat your water in a kettle, then pour it into the teapot. Check the “Works on” line in the Material & Craftsmanship details above for your piece.

Will it rust?
Cast iron can rust if water is left sitting inside. Rinse with warm water after each use (no soap or dishwasher), empty it completely and let it dry, ideally while still warm. Glass teapots won't rust; just rinse and dry, and avoid sudden temperature changes.

How many cups does it hold?
Each listing shows its capacity in the details above. As a guide, a 17 oz (500ml) teapot pours about 2 cups, a 30 oz (0.9 L) teapot about 3–4 cups, and a 40 oz (1.2 L) teapot about 5.

Can I use loose-leaf tea or tea bags?
Yes, either works. Add your tea, pour in hot water and steep to taste.

What should I do before using it for the first time?
Rinse it with hot water. For the stovetop kettle, also boil a full kettle of water and discard it, 2–3 times.
