Before first use, rinse the teapot with hot water to warm it up. Add your favorite loose leaf tea or tea bags into the teapot’s infuser if available. Pour hot water (not boiling) into the teapot and allow the tea to steep for the recommended time according to the tea type. Pour the brewed tea carefully, as the teapot and handle can become very hot. Avoid heating the teapot directly over an open flame. After use, rinse thoroughly with warm water, dry completely, and store in a dry place.

After each use, wash the teapot with warm water only; avoid using soap or harsh detergents to preserve the seasoning and avoid rust. Dry the teapot thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent moisture buildup. Do not leave water or tea inside the teapot for extended periods. Avoid heating the teapot over a direct flame to protect its integrity. Store in a dry environment to prevent rusting, and handle with care due to its weight and heat retention properties.
