Egyptian Tea Pot
I bought this teapot in Egypt for less than $2 in early 2006. It is of Egyptian manufacture and design and made of aluminum. The handles on the side and top are plastic. I think the design is beautiful. When I had it in Egypt I made tea in it every day, but here in the USA I never use it at all, because I'm really a coffee drinker most of the time except when I'm in Egypt. I've recently decided not to use aluminum cookware anymore, so it is now just something nice to look at. This makes me a little sad. I have two of these. I bought both of them at a little neighborhood shop in 6 October City, about 50 kilometers outside of Cairo. I looked in a lot of places in Cairo but couldn't find any other teapots that had this kind of elegant simplicity.
