Detail

Product Description

The Jebena is the beating heart of the Ethiopian coffee ceremony one of the oldest and most cherished communal rituals in the world. This large Telet edition is hand thrown from black ceramic and shaped into the iconic form that has graced Ethiopian homes, courtyards, and gathering spaces for generations: a round, grounded base, a long, elegant narrow neck, and a dedicated pouring spout that delivers coffee with quiet precision.

Central Ceremony Piece: The heart of the Ethiopian coffee ritual, symbolizing community, unity, and a warm welcome for guests. Optimized for serving multiple rounds of coffee, ideal for family gatherings and social events.
Functional Craftsmanship: Designed to boil water and ground coffee together over coals or a stove for a robust, unfiltered flavor.

Care & Maintenance

Hand Wash Only: Clean with warm water and a soft cloth or sponge after each use. Do not place in a dishwasher, the heat and detergent can damage the ceramic finish and hand-painted patterns.
Rinse Promptly: Rinse the interior after brewing to prevent coffee residue and tannin buildup. A gentle swirl of warm water is usually sufficient.
Heat Use: Suitable for use over low to medium open flames or gas stoves. Avoid extreme temperature shocks, do not move from a hot flame directly into cold water.
Handle with Care: Ceramic is durable but can chip or crack if dropped or knocked. Handle the spout and neck with particular care as these are the most slender points.

I recently purchased this beautiful and authentic Ethiopian Jebena. The craftsmanship is excellent and it makes rich, flavorful coffee just like the traditional Ethiopian coffee ceremony. It’s both functional and a stunning cultural piece for the kitchen. Highly recommend! The shipping was fast as well.
