Ibrik

Not to be confused with ibriq.

An ibrik is a Middle Eastern container with a spout used for storing and pouring liquid contents. The word comes into English from Ottoman Turkish ابریق (ibrik, ıbrık, “ewer”) (modern Turkish ibrik), from Arabic إِبْرِيق (ʔibrīq), ultimately from Persian آب (âb, “water”) + the present stem of the verb ریختن (rêxtan, “to pour”).

A Turkish cezve, also called a Greek μπρίκι (bríki)

Although the Turkish word ibrik, derived from Persian through Arabic, denotes simply a pitcher or ewer, the term is often used in English to mean a Turkish or Greek coffee pot, which is known in Turkish as a cezve (in Greek a μπρίκι bríki).
