Do they use lead free glaze in the manufacturing of the teapot?

Yes, it is food safe. If there were lead in the glaze it would be required by US law that it be labeled, "For decorative use only".

As with so much, you tea pot is made in China. The glaze would I am sure meet American and European standards. It is a well crafted product. Cheers.

It is lead crystal. Lead is used to be able to cut the designs in cystal. If it was smooth glass it would likely be lead free.

I don't believe there is any coating on the inside of the teapot. I have not seen any small flakes in the water.

I love this teapot! Some have mentioned it being fragile.I am a bull in a China shop and it doesn't break.I have dropped the lid and it didn't even chip or crack.If you Google borosilicate glass it is lead and bpa free.

The glaze is still perfect, no cracking or chipping. I do not know if it is lead free. I used recyclable/decomposable bags in mine.

As far as I know, lead is not in glass, usually it's in paint. When I buy ceramics from Mexico, they actually say "lead free" on the bottom. Glass is made from sand.

It is English, so no. But it is a solidly glazed teapot and not made in China, which really important. And it doesn't drip.

I assume so. Honestly, I just can't imagine that they'd have lead in them. They are a very quality products & absolutely beautiful. I love them!! I would never knowingly have anything that had lead in the glass to drink out of, of course. This is seemingly an extremely high quality way that the color is made into the glass itself, so there is no paint flaking issues like other brands or products have had.

I cant answer that for sure. I would think so. I don't think lead would be allowed in any cookware in the US these days. They are made out of aluminum and the inside is ceramic. I own 1 set and gave away 3 more sets.

As far as I know, yes. There cannot be any cookware in North America that contains lead.

The previous answer describing tests and glazes is correct - for Corelle's *STONEWARE*, though. These plates (and almost all of Corelle, excluding the mugs) are not stoneware. They're made of a special type of glass, which should not contain or leach any lead at all. This is why I chose these, because I believe them to be safe.

Yes~ according to their website all glassware by Anchor Hocking is lead free and BPA-free.

Manufacturers haven't used lead for decades in making glass. I'm sure these are lead free.
