This Iron And Wood Tea Pot By Japanese Design Legend Makoto Koizumi Completes The Set With Its Matching Tea Kettle. While This Iteration Cannot Withstand Direct Heat, It Does Contain A Strainer And A Wider, Wood-Capped Opening To Make Tea Rituals Easy. A Beautiful Conversation With The Tea Kettle: Where Its Handle Is Flat, This Is Round; Where Its Outside Is Rough Cast Iron, This Inside Is Glossy Like The Bottom Of A Mysterious Lake. Its Similar Sloping Sides And Natural-Oiled Wood Cap, However, Make It An Undeniable Set. On Its Own, This Tea Pot Still Does Shine. From Its Pouring-Aid Lip To Its Gorgeous, Simple Metal Joinery, This Teapot Will Make Each Day That You Use It Feel Special.
