The tea is placed in the pot and heated on the top of the urn. It is usually a highly concentrated type of tea.
The urn can be cleaned of debris from the latched opening on the bottom. The whole set sits on a drip tray to catch any spill. This set is made from hand hammered polished brass. It has two wooden handles on each side to ensure it can be lifted when hot. It has beautiful detailing around the body and a lovely molded spigot. The urn measures 13.5 in height, alone. The pot measures 5 in width on the body. It measures 18 in height with the pot on top of the urn. The tray measures 13" in length and 7.5" in width. This set will come in as found condition- it is clean but the inside does have a small amount of debris that needs to be brushed out. The paint on the wooden handles need to be touched up if you prefer. There are no significant damages to the pieces- just expected wear for the age of the set.
