Cast iron teapots and kettles are some of the oldest types of kettles in existence. The material makes them a popular choice both with manufacturers and tea-lovers as it is non-toxic, able to retain heat well and can be moulded into any number of different shapes.

Unlike more traditional teapots made of clay or china, cast iron can take its shape using a mould rather than being reliant on potters. This makes for a much greater choice of shape and size. Creating patterns and adding colours is also relatively straightforward, so the variety of cast iron teapots available means there's something to suit every taste.
