I don’t post much about industrial design, I will try to more often in the future, but I just had to post about the Sorapot by NY designer Joey Roth. It’s the sexiest damn teapot I’ve ever seen. This is not a typical pot where you fill it with water and throw it on the a flame. The way this works is you open it up, put in tea leaves and just add hot water. For $179 you can add this beauty to your home some time in February 08. I’m sold.
Wow,.. the interior is glass too! that is fantastic.
I believe that this is a tea pot (used for brewing the tea, but not for boiling the water), as opposed to a tea kettle which can be used for boiling water and brewing tea. I discovered this difference when an ex-girlfriend yelled at me for boiling water in a porcelain tea pot.
Oh, also, teapots do not have little whistles on them like kettles.
But yeah, this thing is gorgeous.
Richard, thanks for the explanation. The Sorapot is only used for brewing.
