What is a Russian tea maker?
1 Answer
A samovar is a Russian vessel that’s traditionally used to heat and boil water, or make tea. These metal urns are often brass and have a spigot near the base for pouring the hot water. The water is heated by a vertical tube that contains hot charcoal and runs through the middle of the pot. Shop a range of antique and vintage samovars on 1stDibs.
