A most curious tea party

I was in search of a new teapot and I put the question to the Forkd crew. I thought I'd share a few of my favourites from our coversation and my search.
Stainless Steel Double Walled Tea Pot; Suavo
Sorapot by Joey Roth
After much searching I decided on the amazing Staub La Theiere Round Teapot. Even though the price is a bit steep (groan), it's worth every cent. It keeps it's heat forever and doubles as both kettle and pot...not to mention it looks great on the stove top. I was lucky to find one here in Calgary and just in time for Christmas. Merry Christmas to me!
Update: As I usually keep searching after I've bought something I'm going to continue the list of beautiful teapots and kettles.
Tiny industries

Truly great products allow industries to grow up around them. The Ipod is obviously one of those products. For example, Pod Star sells covers for your nano, and very nicely designed ones at that. I think it's great that a big company like Apple lets the little guys skirt around the edges of their business, making money and increasing the value of their brand.
