[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 4280059, member: 649"]Regardless of the cup size, the pot is definitely a coffee pot. Teapots are not tall and slim, coffee pots are. Teapots are bulbous/globular in shape to allow better movement, and therefore better steeping, of the tea leaves. I don't know what you mean by "boofy"... EDIT: Some may suggest it's a chocolate pot but chocolate pots [I]typically [/I]have a pour spout at the top rim of the pot, such as this beautiful example: [IMG]https://i.pinimg.com/originals/70/bd/bf/70bdbfbe3da221e9c529f9723737b843.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
