Tetsubin, or cast iron teapots, were first used throughout Japan as kettles to boil water over an open flame and were usually hung above a hearth to also provide heat and humidity in cold weather. In the mid 19th century, as infused teas such as Sencha became popular, brewing and serving the tea to friends and family in a tetsubin also became very popular. Designs and shapes have since evolved from simple and plain to detailed and ornate works of art as we know them today. 1 Tetsubin Cast Iron Teapot in Jet Black which holds 23.6 ounces (0.7L) with mesh screen and lid
