Japanese cake design cast iron teapot

Superb cast iron teapot whose pancake design follows all the protocols of Japanese manufacturing. The patterns of the presented models are subtly traditional with cherished themes that bring good vibes, such as the fish, the plum blossom, the hail, the ear of wheat, or bamboo. The patinated colors on the relief designs are warm and subtle. The handle is wrapped in natural hemp fiber. The handcrafting technique respects the ancestral Japanese know-how of sand casting; the tetsubin goes through multiple stages, which can take 2 months before its complete finishing.

A teapot because it is equipped with a removable stainless steel filter, a tetsubin because it is made of uncoated cast iron, except for having been treated at high temperature to create an oxide film lining, a natural protection against rust (Japanese technique).

Its pancake shape, wide and low, allows the spread-out water to boil faster and stay hot longer. The water becomes charged with iron ions and discharges chlorine ions. "The secret of a tea ceremony begins with good water, the secret of good water begins with the pot."

Teapot capacity 900ml, diameter 22cm, weight 1350g.
