Tea is always better from a teapot! Not sure of the technical reasons why, but surely that's enough of an excuse to buy this cheerful Polka Dot 4 cup teapot?

Boxed 

Handmade in Stoke-on-Trent.

Dishwasher safe. Lower temperature wash and liquid detergent recommended to maintain appearance. Not recommended for use in the microwave. Earthenware pottery can sometimes get hot in the microwave so we recommend you don’t put Emma Bridgewater pottery in the microwave. Not oven safe.
