Technical details
Glass Teapot with Built-In Strainer, 20 oz
This 20 oz borosilicate glass teapot is shaped like a pumpkin and comes with a built-in strainer, so loose-leaf tea and herbal blends brew right inside without any extra gadget. Borosilicate glass handles heat well and won't absorb flavors or odors. The lid fits snugly to keep your brew warm. Check the care instructions before putting it in the dishwasher, and keep it away from direct stovetop heat. A lovely, functional piece for daily use.
The Benefit
Your Loose-Leaf Tea, Finally Fuss-Free
You know that moment when you just want a quiet cup of tea and instead you're hunting for the strainer, the infuser, the lid to the infuser? Well now, this little pumpkin teapot takes care of all that. The strainer is already built in, honey. You steep, you pour, you breathe. That's the whole thing. A proper cup of tea without the drama, every single morning.
What It's Made Of
Borosilicate Glass Teapot Built to Last
Borosilicate glass is the good kind, let me tell you. It handles heat without fussing, it doesn't hold onto yesterday's chamomile when you brew something new today, and you can watch your tea bloom right through the walls. The pumpkin shape is charming, mind you, but it's not just for looks. The snug lid keeps the warmth in, and the built-in strainer means one less thing rattling around in your drawer.
In Your Kitchen
Steep, Watch, Pour: That's Your Morning Now
Picture this, dear: kettle's just whistled, you spoon your loose-leaf right into the teapot, pour the hot water over, and watch the whole thing unfurl through the glass like a little show put on just for you. Three minutes later you're pouring a clean, strained cup straight from the spout. No drips, no bits, no fuss. Between you and me, it makes the whole morning feel a little more intentional.
Everyday Proof
The Glass Teapot That Earns Its Spot
Hold on now, a teapot only earns its place on the counter if it actually works day after day. The built-in strainer means you're not fishing for a separate infuser at seven in the morning. The 20 oz size is generous enough for two good cups, or one very generous one, believe me. And because borosilicate glass doesn't stain or hold flavors, your peppermint stays peppermint and your oolong stays oolong. Simple as that.
FAQ
Your Questions, Answered
How much tea does this teapot actually hold?
It holds 20 oz, which is right around two generous mugs or one very satisfying large cup. Well now, that's plenty for a quiet morning or sharing a pot with a friend over the kitchen table.
Can I use loose-leaf tea directly in this teapot?
Yes, and that's exactly the point, honey. The built-in strainer is already there waiting for your loose leaves. No separate infuser needed. Just spoon your tea in, pour your hot water, steep, and pour. Clean cup every time.
Is borosilicate glass safe for hot water?
Borosilicate glass is made to handle heat, which is why it's the material serious tea folks reach for. It won't crack from thermal shock the way regular glass might. Mind you, keep it off the stovetop burner directly, and you'll be just fine.
Will this teapot stain or hold onto flavors over time?
That's one of the real advantages of borosilicate glass, believe me. It doesn't absorb flavors or odors, so your chamomile won't haunt your next pot of green tea. A good rinse and it's ready for whatever you're brewing next.
Does the lid stay on securely when I pour?
The lid is included and fits snugly on the teapot. Between you and me, a lid that slides off mid-pour is one of life's small annoyances, so it's worth checking fit before you buy, and this one is designed to stay put while you pour.

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.

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.
