Teapots & Kettles

Tea Pots and Kettles are the kitchen objects that are used to heat water to boil or make tea by steeping tea leaves. Tea Pots and Kettles are typically used within kitchen or dining settings and environments. These vessels are designed with an opening at their top where water is added by the user, a handle for holding, and a spout through which the water or tea is served. Some Tea Pots and Kettles also have an air hole on their lid to stop the spout from dripping when the tea or water is being served. Tea Pots and Kettles range in materiality, size, and finish.
The different parts of a teapot include the handle which allows the user to hold the teapot, the thumbpiece to provide support for the thumb while pouring tea and sockets that connect the handle to the teapot. The foot is an essential part of the teapot as it steadies the teapot
Tea Time is the meal that is eaten during the mid-afternoon or the early evening part of the day. Tea Time is associated with the United Kingdom, Ireland, as well as some Commonwealth countries. Tea time typically consists of a light meal or snack that is accompanied with tea.
A kettle whistles due to the vibrations that are caused by the steam that is escaping the small opening of the tea kettle. The kettle whistle sound that is produced by a teapot lets users know that the water inside it is hot and ready for drinking.
