Evoking the 300-year-old Russian tradition of preparing and serving tea to houseguests, this is the authentic samovar that heats up to 23 cups of tea. Popularized by the works of Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoyevsky, samovars were often centerpieces of holiday dinners and are symbols of hospitality that ensure guests always have access to hot tea. Updated for modern use, the samovar has a 1,500-watt heating element that warms the water in the 100-oz. tank and keeps the tea concentrate in the 34-oz. removable teapot hot. Guests simply fill their cup with tea concentrate and adjust the strength of their drink by adding hot water from the tank's spout. The water temperature adjusts from 140º F to 212º F via the integrated thermostat. The water reservoir has a limescale filter and the teapot has a removable filter for straining loose-leaf tea. Crafted from polished 18/10 stainless steel, the samovar has handles for ease of carrying. Hand wash. Plugs into AC. 20 1/2" H x 10 1/4" W x 11 3/4" L. (8 1/2 lbs.)
