ok you can type in persian coffee pot, middle eastern coffee pot, or arabic coffee pot into google and look at the "images for" pictures

and in Ethiopia...a jebena

Now for some confusion
go down until you reach persian teapot

In short I think a lot of mislabeling has been going on. This is likely for coffee. If not then it is for tea. I will go ask my saudi friends today what they make of this and report back.
