Key Features
Design & Artistry: The teapot features a classic bulbous body with four small, integrated legs. It is adorned with intricate hand-carved or hand-chiseled arabesque and geometric patterns.
Materials: These teapots are typically crafted from silver-plated brass or high-quality stainless steel for durability and heat resistance. The handle is often designed to be heat-resistant, and the lid is usually hinged with a decorative finial knob.
Functionality: It features a signature curved gooseneck spout, specifically designed for the traditional "high-pour" technique. This allows the tea to be poured from a height to create a frothy foam on the surface of the tea glass. Many versions include a built-in filter at the base of the spout to keep tea leaves inside.
Common Specifications
Capacity: Ranges widely from personal single-serving sizes (approx. 8 oz) to large party sizes (up to 45 oz or 12 servings).
Stovetop Compatibility: Many are stovetop safe (use on low to medium heat) for brewing the tea directly over a flame
