Disappointed This is a beautiful teapot, made by Rikyu, but it came with the handle not attached. The teapot is cast iron, the handle is made of steel, no flex there. Both my husband and I tried to attach it but were unable to. The teapot itself is very nice, it does not say where is was made so Iâm assuming China, as the teapots made in Japan are stamped. That being said, I would have been happy with it if the handle was attached as it should have been. Very disappointed, no choice but to return it…
