Dallah - Saudi Teapots


The graceful Saudi teapots are called Dallah.  They come in a variety of different metals, like steel, copper, or brass.  The distinctive features of the dallah are the graceful exaggerated spout, the long handle, and the finial top.  Many also have beautiful detailing and decorative touches.  The dallahs are mainly used to serve drinks, such as tea and coffee.
