Description : TRADITIONAL DESIGN These are hand made Turkish Coffee Pots (cezve/ibrik). Each piece is hammered into shape by experienced artisans in Anatolia. They are carefully etched with detailed designs, polished and then painted with bright colors! They look like pieces of art but made for everyday use.
In addition to their distinctive designs, they have wood handles that will not get hot as you make your coffee. They are tin lined inside for durability and ease of cleaning.
WHY COPPER ? Copper, more than any other metal is known for its ability to diffuse heat evenly and conduct it quickly throughout its surface. Hence, it is used all over the world as high-efficiency conductors of heat and are especially coveted for their ability to quickly bring water to a boil (there are some cezve/ibriks that are made with brass but these don't heat as well. In fact, some manufacturers use brass only for the handles so that they stay cool to touch). Copper cezves/ibriks are also easy to care for, needing only an occasional cleaning with a soft, damp cloth. Besides, copper pots look better and gain more character as they age - just like people do!
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

1st Customer Review : NICE IBRIK AT A GOOD PRICE
I seldom review products of any sort, sticking pretty much to books, but will make an exception for this one. This little item can indeed be called a "Turkish Coffee pot," but it should be more properly called an ibrik, or if in another part of that world, cezve. This is an attractive item being reviewed and one of the most important aspects is that it is made of copper rather than the flashy bronze. This is important because making Turkish coffee, if done correctly, is not something that can be done in seconds. Brass, takes for ever to heat up and does not stay all that hot once it does. Copper, on the other hand heats nicely and evenly.
To make a good cup of this stuff requires some experience and indeed experimentation if you have never done it before. Using an ibrik takes skill, for both the first and the second boil. Both boils need to be done very slowly, and to be honest, to get a true flavor, it is best to do this over a charcoal brazier. But I realize that...

2nd Customer Review : a very good one!
It looks amazing and makes amazing coffee!
I am using it quite often for several months now - and it is still like new, no change inside or on its decorations. Easy cleanup - just rinse with water once you poured your coffee into a cup. Be gentle, absolutely no need to scratch it with a sponge or anything, just rinse with water - enough!
No burned or stuck coffee.
I think it could be a good present too. Fancy enough, useful enough, not a cliche present, high probability of not having one, not too cheap, not so easy to find in general stores, durable and a good quality.
About the size: it is small. But it should be small! That is the concept of making coffee in a pot. If you want more
1) fill it again and give it a second run just after the first one
or
2) get two of them and make 2 at the same time
3) Use milk ) That is what I do. I make it strong - put some extra coffee initially. Then I make 2 cups of coffee, for me and my friend,...
3rd Customer Review : GORGEOUS AND SO FUNCTIONAL
NOT ONLY IS IT GORGEOUS BUT ALSO SO FUNCTIONAL. I HAVE DO NOT USE IT FOR MAKING TURKISH COFFEE. I USE IT FOR MELTING BUTTER, CHOCOLATE, HEATING UP SYRUPS, ETC. ETC. IT IS JUST ABSOLUTELY PERFECT - JUST THE PERFECT SIZE WITH A LONG HANDLE AND A POURING SPOUT = NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT IT IS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS.
