Samovar

The staple of every Persian home, samovar is used for boiling water to make tea.

What is a Samovar?

Samovar (or Samavar) is originally from Russia and it is well known outside of Russia and spread through the Russian culture to Eastern Europe, South-Eastern Europe, Iran, Afghanistan, the Kashmir region of India, and is also known in some parts of Central Europe. Since the heated water is typically used to make tea, many samovars have a ring-shaped attachment around the chimney to hold and heat a teapot filled with tea concentrate. Though traditionally heated with coal or charcoal, many newer samovars use electricity to heat water in a manner similar to an electric water boiler. Antique samovars are often prized for their beautiful workmanship. You will find it in most Persian homes. Just like in Russian, Tea is a popular drink in Iran. (source)
