The universal teapot is made of stainless steel with a rounded form and a lid. It is created by a skilled craftsman who uses earth-inspired techniques to glaze it with a beautiful gradation. This compact and adorable 15 oz teapot is perfect for brewing enough tea for one cup with a few extra sips. It ensures that your tea is not over-brewed and keeps it warm for a longer time compared to glass tea pots. The teapot is designed with durability in mind, so it can withstand accidental bumps. The lid stays securely in place while pouring but can be easily removed for cleaning. The removable mesh basket is designed to keep out small particles. The teapot is made in Mino, Japan and is free from lead and cadmium. It features a spill-free spout and the lid can be removed for easy cleaning. It is dishwasher safe, except for the lid, and can be used in the microwave, except for the lid. In the U.S., in 2018, BEE HOUSE changed its brand name to ZERO JAPAN.
