Design and materials

Stainless steel holds heat, and unlike unglazed clay it does not stain or absorb flavour — so one pot can move between a floral oolong in the morning and an earthy ripe pu-erh after dinner without one haunting the other. The crane-shaped spout gives a slow, precise pour, which matters when you are stopping a short steep on time. The wooden handle stays cool through a long session.

What it suits

At 350 ml this is a two-to-three cup pot — the right size for gongfu-style brewing, where you use about 5 g of leaf, pour short steeps and drink them one at a time rather than letting a big mug sit and turn bitter.

Care

Rinse with hot water after use and dry the wooden handle rather than leaving it wet. Tea residue does not need detergent — hot water and a soft cloth is enough.

Frequently asked questions

How much does the Crane Song teapot hold?
350 ml — about two to three small cups, which is the standard size for gongfu-style brewing with roughly 5 g of leaf.

Can I use one steel teapot for different teas?
Yes — that is the advantage of stainless steel. Unlike unglazed clay, which absorbs flavour over time and is usually dedicated to a single tea, steel rinses clean, so you can brew an oolong and then a pu-erh in the same pot.

Does the handle get hot?
No. The handle is wood, which stays cool to hold even when the steel body is full of freshly boiled water.
