DON'T BE SURPRISED IF IT ARRIVES BROKEN
Although this is a handsome design in the Turkish style, the manufacturer's packing within the box is sorely inadequate to protect this glass teapot from the hazards of shipping and delivery. My purchase arrived with the long glass spout completely shattered. Amazon's own packing of the product container within the outer box was minimal (wadded-up brown paper) and thus inadequate to protect the glassware. The outer Amazon box was not marked "Fragile" or ""Glass" to alert the various handlers to use caution. I would love to have this product, but I have no confidence a replacement would escape the same damage.
