Product Information

Full details

This Serax Teapot in white is designed for individuals who appreciate minimalist and artistic tableware. Its key benefit is serving as a unique, sculptural piece that elevates any tea or coffee service. A potential consideration is its distinctive design, which may not suit all interior styles. This teapot ingeniously reimagines cardboard cutouts in fine porcelain, featuring clean, geometric shapes with hand-painted lines that highlight its 'paper' folds. It combines angular edges with smooth, flat surfaces, capturing the aesthetic of paper-craft in an elegant finished piece, topped with a cube-shaped handle and a triangular spout.

Troubleshooting

Teapot arrives chipped or cracked.

Inspect the teapot immediately upon receipt. Contact the retailer for a replacement if any damage is found.

Tea leaves escaping from the spout.

Ensure the lid is properly seated. For finer teas, consider using a tea strainer in addition to the teapot's internal filtering if applicable. The triangular spout is designed for a controlled pour, but very fine particles may still pass.

Hand-painted lines appear faded after washing.

This indicates improper washing. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and hand washing gently. Avoid prolonged soaking. If fading has occurred, it may be irreversible; future washing should be more careful.
