Arare is the name for the delicate burred pattern on this work of art. The first and last rows should have the same number of burrs. Traditional Japanese teapot. Cast iron, enamelled inside. This teapot holds up to 0.85 l, with stainless steel strainer. Approx. 15 cm dia. Weight approximately 1.4 kg.
The town of Morioka is closely associated with the traditional production of cast-iron kettles and is also home to Iwachu, a family business of some 90 years now. The kettles are made using an ancient sand casting process. The finished products are sand-blasted and polished by hand.
This teapot is an unusual addition to any table - but that is not all. As it is made from cast iron, this teapot can also be used directly for boiling water and, by leaving it on the stove, it can also be used to keep tea warm. Initially, this takes a little bit of getting used to: fill the teapot only two thirds full of water.
