is this tea pot NOT for on the stove?

I researched that, too. There is no cast iron teapot for use on the stove that I can find, but people on the internet seem to be doing fine using theirs on the stovetop. The manufacturer says it could crack the enamel, so I haven't.

The body of this tea pot does become extremely hot when you put it on the stove. Even when it is full of hot water! I bought this and found I can never hold a cup when it's full of hot tea!!! Rediculous!

It is not for the stove. Yes it will be hot because it holds the heat throughout the iron. I do not use the cups because of that reason.

No! It is for oven use only. There are some other clay or stone pots on Amazon that say they can be used on stove top. Keep looking and good luck.I am a tea lover and have several tea makers, including stainless, cast iron, samovar, electric, etc. Am I missing out on something? Why do you want clay/stone for this?

No. It's a teapot used for steeping tea. You boil water in another container and pour over tea in le creuset kettle.

A tea "POT" is never put on the heat. The water is BOILED in a KETTLE then transferred to the pot to steap.Tea kettle --> a tool to boil waterTea pot ----> table wear to steap and serve tea.True a tea pot may be placed NEAR a stove or fireplace to slow the cooling process but it is NOT intended to boil water in.

No, you cannot. This is a tea pot. What you put on the stove is called a tea kettle.

This is a tea pot, not a tea kettle. You use a kettle to heat the water and then follow the directions indicated by others on how to make a pot of tea.

I use it to steep the tea so I pour boiling water in to it. I know there is a candle warmer for it to stay hot. I wouldn;t put it on the stove myself.

I do not have a gas stove now but I have had gas stoves before the teapot is made very good and the handle is station neared so it will not get hot next to the pot I see no reason that you would not enjoy it on the gas stove

I don't know for sure but my feeling is I would not because it is so delicate. Normallyif you heat it with hot water from faucet before you put the tea in it will stay hot.

This pot is not intended for stove top use. You are supposed to boil the water in sonething else then pour it into this pot to make your tea.

no, i would not. it is glass and delicate. you could put a tea light candle underneath to keep it warm, but no stove.

No! Please don't put it on the stove! To use a tetsubin, warm it first by putting warm tap water inside while the water for the tea is heating elsewhere. Then when that is done, pour out the original water and brew your tea. The cast iron will keep the tea warmer much longer than any other material, but it would damage the pot to be heated over the stove.

No, it is a teapot for steeping tea, not a tea kettle. It should not be placed on anyheated appliance. It also chips fairly easily.

I'm pretty sure it is just for holding tea. I would not put it on the stove top.
