I took this out from my parents' warehouse. It's a very old aluminum teapot. It's small, very cute, and has a Showa retro feel. There are stains and scratches due to age, but I would appreciate it if you could appreciate the sense of history. I have only washed it with water. As it is an old item that has been stored at home for a long time, please consider it if you understand this. Thank you.
