| TURKISH COFFEE POT - SLAVIC STYLE
Each unique copper
piece is hand hammered into a shape by experienced artisans in Anatolia. They are carefully etched with elaborate designs, then
polished and hand painted one by one with decorative bright colors! They
look like pieces of art but made for everyday use. You'll have a
conversation piece for sure, as you sip your coffee with friends and
family. They are tin lined inside for durability and ease of
cleaning. Handles are wooden and screwed on to the pot.
WHY COPPER?
Copper, more than
any other metal, is known for its ability to diffuse heat evenly and conduct it
quickly throughout its surface. Hence, it is used all over the world as
high-efficiency conductors of heat and are especially coveted for their ability
to quickly bring water to a boil (there are some cezve/ibriks that are made of
brass but these don't heat as well and in fact some of our pots have brass
handles to keep them cool to touch). They are easy to care for, needing
only an occasional cleaning with a soft, damp cloth. Also, they tend to
look better and gain more character as they age...just like people!
