Great quality and a good price. Bought to match our tableware

I love this teapot, like other reviews say you can't lift it when full but I just half fill them top up after pouring a couple of cups... stay hot that way yoo

The careful way it was packaged and that it arrived in one piece. It is a beautiful object. Thank you.

beautiful

I drink a lot of tea and needed a new pot. It is a slightly larger size than my last one and just as heavy duty which is perfect The bright white color and swirl pattern is attractive and it looks nice on any table.

Be aware this company is based in the UK. We placed an order for a Portmeirion tea pot assuming that the company were trading in Germany and so there would not be an issue delivering in Europe, for us Portugal.Sadly, this was not the case as they are based in the UK and now our order is stuck in Customs who are asking for a payment to release, this amounts to 60% of the order value.The company are refusing to pay the duty.So be aware, don't make the same mistake as us.

The perfect size for afternoon tea with friends. Goes beautifully with my tea cups.

I really like the look of this teapot. The grooves are charmingly uneven and more obvious than they are in the pictures.It is quite big though, the pot itself close to 16 cm in diameter, and almost 27 cm from tip of spout to end of handle. It was a bit unexpected when I first saw it. Definitely not a designed-for-one-person teapot. It says 2 pint capacity, which is almost 1 liter (people who use fluid ounces, that's about 32 fl oz), and that is an accurate estimate of the maximum amount of tea you would be able to brew in it. But that's something like 8 tea cups of tea. The minimum amount of water I would use this pot for is probably 500 ml - a nice amount for two people and still fine for one if you're going to be around all afternoon or evening or something. The porcelain holds heat not badly at all.It seems to be fairly durable. It's collided with cups and counters and sinks several times and still hasn't chipped or cracked. The spout is also formed excellently and no tea will spill or drip annoyingly down the spout when you put it down. I also don't have any problems with picking it up and pouring from it. It is heavy, but especially if you grip the top part of the handle rather than the side/bottom, you should be fine. Note that there is no filter between the body of the pot and the spout. I would not want to be cleaning tea leaves out of the spout as it is quite wide where it joins with the pot but very narrow towards the end. Use one of those mesh tea balls. And the lid is great. Doesn't fall off when you're pouring.

I delayed getting a teapot forever and just used one teabag per cup until my very English friend came to visit and shot so many snarky remarks that I tossed my hands up and admitted defeat. Upon receiving the teapot today I was super impressed! It is a very simple and elegant teapot that comes very well packaged and in a lovely box (I'll upload a picture.) I tried it out with some wild strawberry tea I bought in Mystic, CT, and I am definitely keeping this one for myself, it's very easy to use and pours well, but I'm most certainly going to buy more of these as gifts. It looks and works much more expensivly than it is and seriously, the box looks wonderful. I've never been so surprisingly pleased by a purchase.
