A teapot can be more than just practical. This one sits on the hob, then on the table and in between on a shelf where everyone can see it – and basil green is a colour that looks good in all three places.
The teapot from Staub is cast in France and works as kettle and teapot in one. The water is heated right in the pot on the hob, and under the knob on the lid there's a hook for a tea infuser, so the tea can steep in the same vessel. Cast iron holds heat for a long time, and the interior is enamelled in matt black.
The stainless steel handle keeps the lid in place as you pour. It gets hot on the hob, so grab an oven glove. Capacity 1.15 litres. Diameter 16 cm, height 18 cm, weight 2.1 kg. Works on all hobs including induction and is dishwasher safe. Also available in other colours.
