Silver Plated Teapot vs Stainless Steel - Choose the Best For You
When choosing between buying a silver plated teapot or a stainless steel teapot there are a few main points to consider. Usage, design and price are all important factors when making your purchase. We've detailed the advantages and disadvantages of both teapots to help make your shopping a little easier.
The advantages of investing in a silver plated tea pot set
Usage
Depending on the type of tea you plan to prepare can make a difference between which type of teapot is best for your needs. It is said that silver pots are ideal for brewing lightly oxidized teas, like green tea, white tea and oolong teas. However the upkeep on a silver teapot can be difficult as they can tarnish and need constant care to keep looking their best.
Design
If you are looking for a teapot suitable for hosting tea parties and luncheon's nothing really beats a silver teapot for charm and sophistication. Best of all, they can be kept out on display even when not being used.
Price
Silver teapots are in general more expensive than teapots made from other materials. But if you want to invest in something that can serve as a feature in your home as well as a functional item silver is long lasting and looks exquisite.
If you are deciding on a gift, teapots make lovely gifts for anniversaries, weddings and milestone birthdays and something the recipient with treasure and have for years to come.
The advantages of purchasing a stainless steel tea pot
Usage
Stainless steel pots are great for brewing the darker oxidized teas like a darjeeling or a dark oolong tea. Unlike silver, they do not absorb the flavour of tea so are versatile in how they can be used. They also retain heat well and are easy to clean.
Design
For a more contemporary tea experience stainless steel teapots often have a chic edgy quality to them and come in some interesting designs. You can't beat a silver teapot for old Victorian charm but you may like a more modern teapot and something you can use everyday with ease.
Price
Stainless steel teapots are generally lower in cost compared to silver teapots. This doesn't mean that you can purchase a lovely teapot that is functional and looks great in your home. Many designer stainless steel teapots look great as a feature in a contemporary style home.
As a gift, a stainless steel teapot is a good option depending on the person you are buying for. For the no fuss individual with a more contemporary home a stainless steel teapot is a perfect option. But for the admirer of tea parties from days gone by you can't go past a silver teapot.
If you are wanting something to just serve your morning cuppa in stainless steel is a good choice. They can handle a variety of teas without ruining flavour and are easy to wash and look after.
I hope that our list of the advantages and disadvantages of both stainless steel and silver teapots has made your teapot shopping a little easier.
