The origin of the glass teapot
You might not expect it, but the story of the glass teapot is quite interesting. It all started centuries ago when tea was brewed in porcelain pots. However, there was no way to see how strong the tea was or when it was ready. The invention of the transparent glass teapot solved this problem.
Glass teapots began gaining popularity in China between 618 and 907. The Chinese teapots were beautifully decorated and made from thin, heat-resistant borosilicate glass. The Chinese also developed special techniques to strengthen the glass and prevent it from breaking. In Europe, it took a bit longer for glass teapots to become popular, arriving only in the 17th century.

The most popular type of teapot is the double walled glass teapot.

This makes them ideal for cozy afternoons, allowing you to enjoy several cups of delicious tea.
In addition, Bredemeijer® also offers glass teapots with a built-in filter. These allow you to easily use loose tea leaves and remove the filter after brewing your tea.
