The simple and elegant tea basket is handmade of solid brass. Designed to perch on the edge of a mug, the tightly woven basket strains leaves from a larger pot into a single serving. Or this strainer is excellent for teas that should not be steeped for long periods of time, such as flowers like Blue Lotus.
Dimensions: 2" Dia x 0.7" H
Suggested Use: Place loose herbs within the basket and place them in a mug or teapot, and pour hot water through it. Steep tea for as long as recommended.
Instructions for Care: The brass-plated strainers will lightly tarnish over time. To keep these strainers clean, simply rinse and pat dry after each use.
