Question: Can you put this pot directly on the stovetop?
Document: I am usually a pretty traditional kind of heavy ceramic teapot person. I thought this would be a pretty pot to use when I had guests and I put it on my wishlist. My husband bought it for me off my list for Christmas, and it has very quickly become my favorite pot! The little tealight (imagine, using a tealight for tea! )keeps the tea at the perfect drinking temp, and the teapot holds ample tea for myself and guests. It is a beautiful pot, and I have gotten many compliments on how elegant it is.
Pictures do not do this glass teapot justice. I received it today, it was very well packaged. The handle is very comfortable & functional it does not slip, like rounded handles, make sure to put your finger on the glass lid while pouring so it does not accidentally slip off & break. It is glass & although thin is well made. The tea light keeps the tea warm without burning the tea or giving it a bitter taste. This tea kettle is like a work of art, you will love it!
I've tried to buy this item twice. The first time the seller was &#34;MMP Living&#34; but it arrived in pieces and I send it back. Despite the bad experience, I really wanted this teapot to work because I loved the concept and design. So I tried it again, now directly from Amazon, and the item arrived OK.I've used a few times and had no problems with it, but the thin glass makes me a little insecure. I understand the necessity of being thin, so the candle can keep it hot, but I'm always afraid it will shatter at the minor shock.
This is a very different tea pot and stand. It is a fragile so I think it will need some TLC
I have had this pot for years and it's perfect for when I am doing tea with friends. It looks beautiful and keeps the tea warm forever (just keep replacing the candle).
It is unique and beautiful. I bought it as a gift for my mother and she loved it. I searched two yrs for just the right kind of tea pot, so glad I finally found it with this one.
this tea pot is delicate, beautiful and perfect for that pot of tea that gets cold way to quick. I love having a cup of tea yet dont like reheated tea. this works great for that cozy afternoon book reading in an over stuffed chair.
I received this teapot as a gift from my father. I absolutely adore it. It keeps a pot of tea warm without having to over brew or water down the tea. It is perfect for a loose leaf tea fan. My only problem is the design of the cover which I broke this morning. It is awkward to hold both the pot and lid while pouring a cup. If you don't hold on to both then the top flies off. I am currently on the search to see if I can replace the lid or if I have to get a whole new set up.
The strainer does a very good job of containing even fine bulk tea - I have not had a problem with sediment at all, even with "cheaper" cut tea.The only complaints I would have - and they are very minor - is that it is a thin borosilicate glass. The thinness is necessary for the light to keep it warm. It is strong enough, but I would take care when cleaning it. The other problem is that the spout can be a challenge to clean - not as much of a problem in a opaque pot, but in clear pots, you need to really keep the stains out to keep it from looking unsightly.
Therefore I'm extremely careful while clean it or moving it arround.On the other hand, it's beautiful, holds a good amount of tea and the strainer is excellent.
Answer: No you can not. You must boil the water and add it to the pot. It is a very stunning piece but any glass tea pot is some what fragil. I do love it however.
