Spoke briefly with the manufacturer. Everything is made in China. I thought this handmade blown teapot and accessories were from Japan judging by the quality. It is manufactured from high quality stainless steel and finest glass materials and formed in a suitable facility. Not the cheap, low standards we expect. I've been using it for a few months and have tormented the product and let it sit full for many nights. Cleaned the dishwasher several times. There is still no rust on the lid, basket, retaining ring and spot welds. Heavier glass construction compared to all previous glass teapots. Worth every penny. By the way, the instruction manual was excellent and contained useful tips. In addition, the manufacturer provided pdf instructions for the tea in the subsequent purchase email. Excellent heat retention all round. Thick glass and tight-fitting lid. You don't even need to use insulating sheeting.*Special note for anyone new to glass teapot. Traditional Asian tea kettles are a refinement best suited for the finest tea, not designed for large capacities as Americans think. This glass teapot is the largest and best piece of art I have ever found. However, it only fills an extra large coffee mug or two regular sized coffee mugs to the brim. The idea is to brew the tea at the exact temperature for the exact time you prefer and then pour out the hot tea so that the remaining liquid is under the basket and no longer affects the tea. This allows you to brew many teas at your own pace. Example: Place a small amount (teaware) of high-quality green tea in a metal basket. Add boiled water. green tea insist 45 seconds. Make sure the tea does not interact with the water between these intervals.
