38 Oz. Moss Green Cast Nobility Iron TeapotOld Dutch cast-iron teapots combine traditional Japanese styling and a modern aesthetic that result in very evocative shapes. Generously sized with a capacity of 38 ounces, the Nobility teapot forms a wide, flat shape, much like an upside-down bowl, balanced by a graceful spout and arching handle. The textured surface, available in a choice of colors, takes on a weathered appearance and displays bas-relief images of bamboo and pine. Perhaps a bit heavier than many teapots, the heft and visual richness lend noble contemplation to the act of making tea.

Iron teapots traditionally used in Japan are known as tetsubin, which were used to boil water as well as brew tea. However, the Nobility teapot is meant just for brewing, not for boiling on a stovetop. Old Dutch uses a specially purified cast iron for its teapots, and coats the insides with black enamel to help prevent rusting. Unlike ceramic teapots, the heavy cast iron retains heat wonderfully and won’t chip. After use, the pot is best cared for when rinsed and dried by hand before storing. A stainless-steel infusing basket that hangs from the rim is included to facilitate brewing with loose tea leaves. –Ann Bieri
