FAQs
Is the Hestia Tulip Teapot dishwasher safe?
While it is made of durable ceramic, we recommend hand-washing to protect the delicate glaze and the longevity of the finish.
Can I use this on a stovetop?
No, this teapot is designed for serving tea only and should never be placed directly on a stovetop or heating element.
What is the capacity of the teapot?
The teapot features a generous capacity suitable for serving multiple cups of tea, ideal for gatherings or afternoon tea.
Does the lid stay secure while pouring?
Yes, the sculpted lid is designed to fit well, but as with all ceramic teapots, it is best to place a finger lightly on the lid while pouring at a sharp angle.
How do I prevent chipping the spout?
Store the teapot in a dedicated cupboard space where it is not crowded by other heavy metal or hard ceramic items.
Troubleshooting
Teapot dripping after pouring
Ensure the spout is clean of dried residue and try pouring with a more decisive, confident motion rather than a slow tilt.
Tea staining the interior
Fill the teapot with a mixture of warm water and a small amount of baking soda, let it sit for 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before the first use, rinse the teapot thoroughly with warm, soapy water to ensure it is clean. When preparing tea, always pour hot water carefully to avoid thermal shock to the ceramic. This teapot pairs best with pastel-colored cups or floral-patterned saucers to complement its spring-inspired theme. For care, it is highly recommended to hand-wash the unit using a soft sponge and mild detergent. Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or steel wool, as these can scratch the soft pink glaze and dull the finish over time. Always store the teapot in a stable area, ensuring the lid is either secured or stored separately to prevent accidental drops.
