Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Old Dutch cast-iron teapots combine traditional Japanese styling and a modern aesthetic that result in very evocative shapes. Generously sized with a capacity of 38 ounces, the Nobility teapot forms a wide, flat shape, much like an upside-down bowl, balanced by a graceful spout and arching handle. The textured surface, available in a choice of colors, takes on a weathered appearance and displays bas-relief images of bamboo and pine. Perhaps a bit heavier than many teapots, the heft and visual richness lend noble contemplation to the act of making tea.
Iron teapots traditionally used in Japan are known as tetsubin, which were used to boil water as well as brew tea. However, the Nobility teapot is meant just for brewing, not for boiling on a stovetop. Old Dutch uses a specially purified cast iron for its teapots, and coats the insides with black enamel to help prevent rusting. Unlike ceramic teapots, the heavy cast iron retains heat wonderfully and won't chip. After use, the pot is best cared for when rinsed and dried by hand before storing. A stainless-steel infusing basket that hangs from the rim is included to facilitate brewing with loose tea leaves. --Ann Bieri

Perfect Tea for Me,

This review is from: Old Dutch 38-Ounce Cast-Iron Nobility Teapot, Moss Green (Kitchen)
Love my new teapot, it reminds me of one my grandmother used over a hibachi in Japan when I was a child. It is a little heavy I'm sure for
many people, but I like more than one cup of cha anyway and my wife and daughter often have a cup w/me, and the price was very good. After my wife (unintentionally) has crippled many clay pots, I look forward to many years of enjoying my chain a teapot without a lid, multiple nicks or a missing handle. I hope it and myself ages (Patina) gracefully together

perfect teapot,

This tea pot is fantastic, I cannon recommend it highly enough! It has heavy, durable construction so it will last for years to come and it looks amazing (paint job and details are great!). It holds enough tea for about 4 servings making it great for groups or just for one, and since its made of cast-iron it keeps the tea warm for a long time. Form and function combined to make one perfect product (delivery was quick to boot!).

Perfect for steeping loose leaf tea in,

This review is from: Old Dutch 38-Ounce Cast-Iron Nobility Teapot, Moss Green (Kitchen)
I've had this teapot for almost three years now and I still adore it. It's heavy duty, durable, and steeps the loose leaf tea perfectly. Be sure to put hot water into the teapot first to "warm it up" then pour out the hot water you just used before adding the loose tea and the boiling water from the stove. Remember, DON'T ACTUALLY PUT THIS ONE ON THE STOVE. Many people make this mistake and that is not how this teapot is designed.
