Is the 6 piece japanese tea set LB Sakura made of cast iron as one reviewer indicated?

Hi No it is not made out of cast iron. That person gave the wrong review. It is made out of porclain and is Made in Japan.

No it is not cast iron; the tea pot and cups are made of a ceramic material and are sturdy but definitely do not have the finish nor weight of cast iron pieces.

The teapot is stainless steel. The handle and the piece on the cover are plastic.

Yes. Cast Iron, nice and smooth and flat. This is a great machine: powerful and quiet.

I tested this with a magnet. The bottom and body are ferromagnetic (contain iron and are likely steel). The spout and top are not ferromagnetic and are therefore made of some metal other than steel. The kettle is not heavy enough and too shiny to contain any cast iron. The steel components are likely stainless, not cast iron.

I have three bone china tea sets from Teavana and I use it with them. I'm not sure if it is recommended but it works for me.

The Amsterdam Tea Cup and Saucer is made of lead-free "Porcelain", but not too thin or too fragile. Love it ! Use mine with silicone "tea-buddy", for individual serving in cup or mug, works great !

Yes, it is made of AUS 8 steel which is a Japanese stainless steel. See http://www.midwayusa.com/technicalnotes/application_pages/knife_steel_and_handle_material_chart.htm .Check your State and local laws regarding legality.

No, this is made of ordinary steel. The traditional samurai swords are made from Tamahagane, a strong steel that can be traced back to the cannonballs used from the same material. But traditional swords are going to cost you anywhere from the high hundreds into the thousands of dollars. This is more of a prop or "toy" if you will, not really for kids. But still it is good for the money that it costs. Hope this helped.

You know, it doesn't say. It's says it's made by Lorenzo. I checked on their site but still cannot see it. I've included the site if you want to contact them to see if this is imported or made here. http://www.lorenzoimport.com/lorenzo/index.html But I LOVE my dishes! And the company was great to work with when I received two broken tea cups. They sent two new ones out really quickly!

I do not know where it is manufactured, but I bought it as an alternative to a higher priced Japanese tetsubin tea pot and absolutely love it!

Well, the one I ordered was a gift for a friend of mine. However I did check the tetsubin and the packaging before I gave it to him. There was nothing stamped on the cast iron itself, but there was a little paper label ont the teapot cover. It said "made in China". I didn't really expect it to be a Japanese product (those are several times more expensive), but nevertheless the quality of this tetsubin is really good. And my friend was (and still is) really happy with the gift. So all I can say is I really recommend it to anyone even though it's not made in Japan.

It simply says GRACE tm tea ware (no other company listed.) It is made in China. It also states dishwasher and microwave safe. I have enjoyed this set so far.

Yes, it is but the problem is you can't get them anywhere! I too love my TM3.5 and I have purchased one replacement due to cracking and now my current one is leaking. I am going to hang with it though. It's too back the company decides to stop making these types of things so you have to buy a new unit. I have probably made thousands of gallons of tea with mine and I love it!!

I have this set, it says "Made in China" on the bottom. It's a very pretty and durable set, it is microwave and dishwasher safe. Many people have been fooled thinking it is made of fine china instead of porcelain since it feels quite dainty. Even my husband likes this set, he says it doesn't look too "girlie". I'm very happy I bought this tea set..

Yes, I am almost certain it is. It is cast iron with a robust ceramic coating.

The 13piece porcelain tea set is made in China. The box does say "Conforms to F963-07 and US FDA Compliance Policies". My grand daughter loves it! She has one at her house & Mimi's house too! Looks just like picture.
