    oh, and money is no object.
    You need one of these - strong, not much faffing, and (I presume) reassuringly expensive.

                Example, albeit the company are sold out:
                https://www.palmerstores.com/product.../2806/#reviews

                Edit: I see amazon have them. The company has changed name from Grunwerg to Cafe Ole, for some reason.
                https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B003CB9T...ing=UTF8&psc=1

                Try a Grunwerg Rondo. Good for strong tea. Avoid glass teapots - they are aesthetically pleasing whilst infusing, but dissipate heat far too quickly and ruin the leaf infusion process.

                I drink black, white, green and herbal teas using teapots, and this one is the best of any I've used. The pot-for-one is good for the office.
                Main reasons to get this one: nobody wants to steal it, looks unusual; bakelite handle, lasts forever, and means you will not get burned whilst carrying it around; wire mesh infuser, rather than a metal tub with holes drilled in, so tea infuses properly.

                  I've always wanted a vacuum (thermos) glass teapot. Every teapot I ever used is cold by the time you want a second cup.

                  I have some nice glass vacuum cups which are lovely
