Iron teapots traditionally used in Japan are known as tetsubin, which were used to boil water as well as brew tea. However, the Prosperity 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 34 Oz. Chestnut Brown Cast Iron Prosperity Teapot
