Cast Iron Kettle Nambu Sayu Small Wood Hand bound with a silkThis cast iron kettle is made in traditional Nambu Tetsubin style with a "hail" pattern. It is called Sayu "Plain Hot Water" and is meant for stovetop use. It is not coated with enamel therefore naturally softens the water by enriching it with iron. The more use it gets the better the water will taste. Make sure to pour out every drop of water after use, remove the lid and let the kettle dry so it doesn't rust.
