Condition of the item

Used for 1 year after purchase.
For initial seasoning, it was aged multiple times with Contrex, a very hard water, to create a mineral film before use. This was effective, and a white film has successfully formed inside. Even those new to iron kettles can use it immediately.

Please understand that some rust spots may appear inside, as this is a characteristic of iron kettles. It is possible to remove rust by scrubbing, but this will require re-seasoning from the beginning. If you are concerned about this, please refrain from purchasing.

After use, it was dried by dry-heating for about 30 seconds.
