The “Oriental” Glass Teapot, 650 ml is a glass teapot with an Oriental-inspired curve, fitted with a removable infuser. Its 650 ml capacity suits serving two or three people. The glass is neutral on the palate: it does not retain the aroma of a tea, so it can move from an unflavoured tea to a scented infusion.

Which teas?

It suits all teas and all herbal infusions. Its transparency makes it a teapot to watch: you follow the leaves as they open and the colour of the liquor deepen, from palest to richest. To compare materials and sizes, our guide to choosing your teapot reviews the different models.

How do you use it?

1. Place the tea or infusion in the infuser, using the dose indicated on the product page.
2. Pour water at the temperature recommended for that tea.
3. Let it steep for the time indicated, watching the liquor take on its colour.
4. Remove the infuser to stop the infusion, then serve.

Removing the infuser prevents the leaves from continuing to steep in the teapot during service. For the settings of each tea family, our guide to steeping times and temperatures gives the reference points. You will also find all our models in the teapots section.

A piece as decorative as it is useful

Clear and graceful, it sits on the table at tea time and shows what you are serving. It pairs well with glasses or cups from our cups section.
