FAQs

What material is the teapot made from?

The teapot is crafted from durable borosilicate glass, known for its strength and resistance to thermal shock.

Can I heat water directly in the teapot on a stove?

No, this teapot is not designed for stovetop use. Please heat your water separately and pour it into the teapot.

Is the teapot dishwasher safe?

Hand washing with mild soap and warm water is recommended to preserve the glass and design. If using a dishwasher, place it on the top rack only and use a gentle cycle.

What do the golden hoops represent?

The two golden hoops are decorative elements that add a touch of luxury and complete the stylized aesthetic of the teapot.

Is the design prone to chipping or fading?

Borosilicate glass is durable, but like all glass, it can chip if dropped. The coloured glass design is integral and should not fade with proper care.

What is the capacity of the teapot?

The teapot has a generous capacity suitable for brewing and serving multiple cups of tea, making it ideal for sharing.

Where does the inspiration for the design come from?

The design is inspired by the "One Thousand and One Nights" tales and traditional Islamic metalwork, reimagining historical spouted jugs.

Troubleshooting

Teapot has a slight imperfection.

Due to the handcrafted nature of the glass, minor variations are normal and part of the unique charm of each piece. If an imperfection significantly affects function or appearance, contact customer support.

Tea appears cloudy after brewing.

This can sometimes happen with certain types of tea. Ensure the teapot is thoroughly cleaned after each use. Using a tea strainer can also help catch fine particles.

Water drips from the spout after pouring.

Ensure the spout is clean and free from any blockages. Wipe the tip of the spout with a cloth after pouring. If the issue persists, check for any damage to the spout's edge.

Difficult to clean intricate areas.

Use a soft bottle brush designed for glassware to gently clean hard-to-reach areas. Warm, soapy water should be effective.
