Bredemeijer Teapot Xilin Design Cast Iron 1.25L in Blue

Bredemeijer Teapot Xilin Design Cast Iron 1.25L in Blue

Our Xilin Cast Iron Teapot in dark blue is exactly how we expect Oriental teapots to look, a beautifully flat and wide body shape, gorgeous yet plain enamel colouring and a textured surface. An exceptional model and one of our bestsellers, able to grace any tea ceremony! With a 1.25L (1250ml) capacity it will give you up to 8 150ml teacups of tea. (note a Mug contains around 350ml, twice or more of a Teacup!)

There are no hard rules for sizes and Teacups can of course vary plus it depends on how you pour! As a guide an average Teacup is said to contain 150ml when filled to 1.5cm of the rim. Thus Teapots sized up to 0.6L pour 3-4 cups, up to 1L 5-6 cups, up to 1.2L 7-8 cups, up to 1.5L 9-10 cups and our largest 2.0L 12-13 cups. If in doubt check the size of your Teacup first and remember with a Mug you will get half the number of Cups!
