The History of the Tetsubin
With roots reaching as far back as the 17th century, the Tetsubin has stood the test of time, and today remains an integral part of the tea lover’s kitchen. During the 17th and 18th centuries, cast iron tea pots were placed over an open charcoal fire to keep water warm, which was believed to slowly release iron into the water, providing drinkers with a dietary source. This, combined with sophisticated intricate designs, led to huge popularity - popularity which remains to this very day.

If you do decide to use this teapot as a kettle, you will need to remove the infuser first - this can be achieved quickly and easily.
