This teapot is a gold-plated reproduction of a model exhibited at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
Description
Drawing its inspiration from the Orient, created in 1875, this teapot arose from a movement seeking, through the representation of characters, fauna and flora of the Orient, a sense of mystery and exoticism. The Orient thus recreated by the Romantics was an imaginary, eternal land of adventure, enchantment and fantasy. Compared with a European world going through huge change, it represented the notion of immutability.
This teapot plays on the poetry of nature and the magic of the desert, and brings to mind the footprints of both man and camel in those strange, hostile and colourful lands inundated with sunshine that invite us to set out on journeys, and promise moments of rest rewarded by hot tea.
Before using your fine gold-plated metal teapot for the first time, we recommend following these instructions:
1. Wash with a soft sponge and soapy water. 2. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
To brew your tea:
• Pour boiling water into your teapot and discard the water. • Place the required amount of tea in the filter provided. • Pour hot water over the tea to cover it and replace the lid to keep it warm. • Once the brewing time is up, remove the filter and serve.
The gold-plated metal preserves the aromas without altering them.
To care for your teapot:
• Regular care for the exterior: damp cloth. Always dry thoroughly after each use to prevent the metal from oxidising. • Regular care for the interior: clean with a soft sponge and soapy water, rinse and dry. • Occasional care for the exterior (in case of metal oxidation): use soft wipes specially designed for gold-plated metals.
Avoid extreme thermal shocks.
