A step up from the tin can of yesteryear is this the Urban Billy. Made to order by hand, this modern version of that classic of Australian design is made up of five pieces of hand-formed borosilicate glass, with turned and bent mountain ash sleeves and lids of ash and cork. With its self-contained heating element of white spirit fuel housed inside the base, the Urban Billy is designed to continue the traditional, social aspects surrounding the ritual of a shared cup of tea.
