!!! IMPORTANT!!! This teapot cannot be used over direct heat from a stovetop range.
Very few ceramic items are safe for stovetop heating. When heated, ceramic ware starts to expand (although not visible to the naked eye). When we heat them from the bottom, they will expand unevenly, because their upper part, which will be relatively cold, will not expand that much. This will cause the crystal structure of the ware to rupture and the pot to break.
Ceramic items are heat resistant only if we heat them slowly and evenly, for example, a casserole in an oven.
This teapot can be used for steaming tea by putting the tea leaves or teabags inside and adding hot water, or just by pouring our previously prepared tea in it in order to serve it to our guests or family. It can also be a beautiful decorative item for our kitchen and living room or even for our garden.

The Ceramics Journey: Unveiling the Stages

GREENWARE
As clay transforms, it enters the greenware stage, where it is fully dried and devoid of moisture. At this point, it attains a delicate state with no flexibility; any attempt to bend it will result in breakage. It stands as a testament to the meticulous drying process, awaiting its initiation into the fiery realm of the first firing. During this phase, it beckons, a silent canvas for the imminent transformation yet to unfold.
