This elegant tempered glass teapot comes with a large stainless steel infuser, allowing plenty of room for the tea to unfurl and properly infuse. This teapot is not made for stove-top use. It is dishwasher safe, however, we recommend cleaning the teapot with white vinegar and water, then thoroughly rinsing with boiling water. A Q-tip dipped in white vinegar will help in removing tea stains from the spout.
