About the material:
This brewer is handcrafted in Iznik, Turkey, using traditional techniques and a unique formula. Iznik ceramics first began production in the mid-14th century during the Ottoman Empire, reaching their golden age in the 16th and 17th centuries. The most distinctive feature of Iznik ceramics is that they contain 85% quartz, a semiprecious mineral. Quartz is considered one of the most challenging minerals to process in ceramic literature, which is why only a few manufacturers worldwide can work with it.
These items are entirely handcrafted, from the production of the ceramic body to the intricate patterns featuring green and orange colors. They are not subjected to any machine or mass production processes.
