The Royal Peacock is a cast iron teapot holding 1200ml, designed for brewing loose leaf tea. It comes with a stainless steel infuser so you can brew right in the pot.

The Real Difference
Your Morning Tea, Finally Worth Sitting Down For
There is something that happens when you pour from a cast iron teapot. The whole ritual slows down, just a little, in the best way. This one holds 1200ml, so you are not rushing back to the kettle every ten minutes. Brew a full pot, settle in, and let the morning actually start. Believe me, once you get used to this, a paper cup feels like a small tragedy.
What's Inside the Box
Cast Iron, Enamel Lining, Stainless Infuser
The Royal Peacock is cast iron through and through, with an enamel-coated interior that keeps rust out and cleanup simple. The stainless steel infuser sits right inside, so you brew loose leaf directly in the pot, no separate strainer to hunt for. Hand wash only, mind you, and keep it off the stovetop. It is a brewing vessel, not a cooking pot, and it does that one job beautifully.
FAQ
Your Questions, Answered
Can I use this cast iron teapot on the stovetop?
No, honey, this one is not stovetop safe. It is designed purely for brewing, so you heat your water separately in a kettle, then pour it in. The enamel interior would not thank you for direct heat, and neither would your tea.
How much tea does the 1200ml teapot actually make?
A good amount, let me tell you. 1200ml gets you roughly four to five generous mugs, depending on how full you pour. Perfect for a slow morning on your own or sharing a pot with a friend without anyone feeling shortchanged.
Does it come with an infuser for loose leaf tea?
It does. A stainless steel infuser is included right in the box, so you can brew loose leaf straight away without buying anything extra. Pop it in, add your tea, pour your hot water, and you are set.
Will the inside of the cast iron teapot rust?
Not with this one. The interior is enamel-coated, which is exactly what protects it from rust. Just hand wash it gently, let it dry, and it will stay in good shape. Skip the dishwasher, though, that coating deserves a little kindness.
Is this teapot heavy to pour?
Cast iron does have some weight to it, that is just the nature of the material. At 1200ml full, it is a solid pot. Most people find they get used to it quickly, and the heat retention you get in return is well worth it, between you and me.

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.
