Tea pot
From Cookipedia
A teapot (tea-pot), is a vessel used for steeping tea leaves or an herbal mix in boiling or near-boiling water, and for serving the tea. Dry tea may be available either in tea bags or as loose tea, in which case a tea infuser or tea strainer may used to hold the leaves as they steep or to hold the leaves inside the teapot when the tea is poured. A tea-cosy or a pot-warmer using tea-lights or the electrical equivalent may be used to prevent the contents of the teapot from cooling too rapidly.
