Product Description

Product Description For centuries, cooks have taken advantage of the natural heat retention and redistribution properties of cast iron. Staub builds on this tradition with our enameled cast iron cookware. Black matte enamel inside and cooking surface creates a culinary advantage for better browning, braising, and roasting. Colorful enamel outside adds flare to your kitchen and table. Safe for use on all types of heat sources, including gas, electric, and induction, and oven safe up to 500F. Chip resistant and dishwasher safe. Made in France. Amazon.com The soothing ritual of preparing and enjoying a cup of tea starts with a favorite pot to heat the water. Cheerful, inviting, and exceptionally designed, Staub's La Theiere series offers tea lovers that special accompaniment to a quiet-time break. This large 1-quart version features a round body and flat lid that fit snugly together to form an interesting two-part pouring spout. Crafted of enameled cast iron for uniform warming and superior heat retention, the heavyweight teapot performs best at medium temperatures to bring water to a gentle boil then keep it hot for a second or even third pouring. The stainless-steel double handle is arched high for easy grasping and swings open on hinges to give access to the lid, while the matching finial accommodates several fingers for lifting. Available in a variety of fashionable colors that coordinate with other Staub cookware, this showpiece vessel is double coated for enduring looks and rust-free performance, and it has a smooth bottom that's suitable for any surface. Each La Theiere teapot is cast in a single-use sand mold where it acquires its own subtle variations to make it truly unique. It goes safely into the dishwasher, though hand washing is recommended for heavy use, and it's backed by a lifetime limited warranty. Handles may get hot so keep a potholder nearby. --Kara Karll
