Ironware craftsman Daieki Takahashi received recognition at the Japan’s Traditional Craft Competition for this uniquely contemporary take on the traditional Japanese Tetsubin (Iron Kettle). Compact and lightweight, Takahashi's design adds a stylish element to the tea drinkers ritual.
Iron kettles have many benefits including helping to provide supplemental iron, removing the smell of chlorine from tap water for a better tasting cup of tea, and retaining heat for long periods. If properly taken care of, they can be used and passed on for generations.
*Tetsubin are fully iron Kettles (they do not have an enamel interior) and are only designed for boiling water. They should not be used for brewing tea.
