Brew tea in this oval, copper-handled tea pot and you will enjoy every bit of the process, just as you will enjoy the fine craftsmanship that elevates each step. In the Chinese tra dition, tea is usually brewed in small pots like this one, and then decanted into a pitcher before serving. The advantage of this method is that you can enjoy the evolving character of the tea as the leaves brew in several successive waters. When each brewing is complete, the pot is emptied into the pitcher to stop the steeping and to rest the tea for a few minutes. This consolidates the flavors before the liquid is finally poured into individual cups to serve and enjoy. This round teapot is coated with an Asian charcoal-gray glaze and has a smooth look and feel. The interior is white, flecked with brown, and adds a sense of balance to the whole set. Four matching cups are included, making this set perfect for sharing with friends or family. Tea tray not included.
