Note: While few designs from ancient times have survived to the present day, we have meticulously combined various elements inspired by those that have endured. Our pieces reflects this rich heritage, blending traditional craftsmanship with a unique aesthetic to create a product that honors the past while serving modern tea rituals.

1. Pre-warming the Teapot
To ensure your tea stays warm throughout the brewing process, fill the teapot with boiling water, let it sit for about a minute, and then discard the water. This pre-warming step is crucial for small-capacity teapots.

2. Measuring Your Tea
For a teapot of this size, use about one teaspoon of loose leaf tea. This amount is perfect for creating a strong, rich flavor in your small batch of tea.

3. Brewing the Tea
Pour hot water (not quite boiling, ideally between 90°C and 95°C) over the tea leaves. Fill the teapot to just below the rim to prevent spillage when placing the lid on.

4. Steeping Time
Steep the tea according to the type: typically, 3-5 minutes for black tea, 2-3 minutes for green tea, and 5-7 minutes for herbal teas. Adjust the time based on how strong you like your tea.

5. Serving
Once the tea has steeped, it’s ready to be served directly from the teapot thanks to the built-in strainer which will catch any loose leaves as you pour.

6. Cleaning the Teapot
Rinse the teapot with warm water after use. If necessary, a mild detergent and a soft brush can be used for cleaning. Be gentle to preserve the rustic golden finish. Allow it to air dry completely before storage.

NOTE: This is a standard method for brewing tea, but feel free to explore more sophisticated techniques to elevate your tea experience.

+ Hand Wash Only: Clean gently with warm water.

This care routine ensures longevity while maintaining the aesthetic of the lotus-inspired design.
