Technical details
Cast iron teapot, cherry blossom design
This Japanese-style cast iron teapot holds 1200 ml, enough for a generous pot to share. It features a classic cherry blossom relief design on the exterior and comes with a stainless steel infuser basket for loose-leaf tea. The cast iron body retains heat well, keeping your brew warm longer. Hand wash only, not dishwasher safe. Not suitable for use directly on a stovetop. Includes the teapot, lid, and removable infuser.
The benefit
Your tea stays warm, start to finish
You know that feeling when you pour your second cup and it's already gone lukewarm? Well, cast iron puts an end to that, honey. This teapot holds onto heat like it means it, so your oolong or your chamomile is still lovely and warm by the time you get back from answering the door. One pot, 1200 ml, and a little moment of calm that actually lasts.
Craft and design
A cast iron teapot worth looking at
The cherry blossom relief on this cast iron teapot is the kind of detail you notice every single morning, and that's the whole point, believe me. The stainless steel infuser basket sits right inside, so you can brew your loose-leaf tea without any fuss. The lid fits snugly, the handle is sturdy, and the whole thing just feels solid in your hands. Mind you, hand wash only, but that takes all of thirty seconds.
FAQ
Your questions, answered
How much tea does this teapot make?
It holds 1200 ml, so you're looking at a good four to five cups depending on your mug. Plenty for a quiet morning on your own, or a pot to share with a friend. That's the kind of capacity that makes a real difference, let me tell you.
Can I use this teapot on the stovetop?
Hold on now, this one is important: no, this cast iron teapot is not suitable for direct stovetop use. You brew your tea separately or use hot water from a kettle, then pour it in. It's a teapot, not a kettle, and that's a distinction worth keeping in mind.
Does it come with an infuser for loose-leaf tea?
Yes, it does. There's a removable stainless steel infuser basket included, so you can brew loose-leaf tea straight in the pot. Pop it in, steep your tea, lift it out. Simple as that, no extra gadgets needed.
How do I clean and care for this cast iron teapot?
Hand wash only, dear, no dishwasher. A gentle rinse and a soft cloth is really all it needs. Cast iron and harsh detergents are not friends, so keep it simple and it'll stay in lovely shape for a long time.
What's actually included in the box?
You get the cast iron teapot itself, the matching lid, and the removable stainless steel infuser basket. Everything you need to brew a proper pot of loose-leaf tea right out of the box, no hunting around for extra parts.

Orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days, and US delivery usually takes 5 to 12 business days. You will receive tracking by email as soon as your order ships.
How can I track my order?
As soon as your order ships, you receive an email with your tracking number and a link to follow the delivery in real time.
Which teapot do you recommend for a beginner?
For beginners we often recommend a ceramic or glass teapot: easy to use, easy to clean, and they suit every kind of tea while you find your favorites.
How do I choose the right teapot size?
It depends on your habits. For one person, 10 to 17 oz is ideal. For a couple, aim for 20 to 34 oz, and for families or hosting, 34 oz and up.
Can I use the same teapot for different teas?
You can, but we recommend dedicated teapots for strong teas: unglazed clay and cast iron keep a memory of the tea. Glass, porcelain and stainless steel stay neutral between teas.
