woven brass : large tea strainer

This solid brass tea strainer is woven by hand in India. This beautiful and practical tea basket can fit in a mug or tea pot. Due to it's depth, you can fill it all the way to the top for a larger pour (for tea pot's) or half way for a single dose. Its double handles rest gently on the rim and can be used to brew or strain loose-leaf tea, flowers, and more. Over time, the brass will acquire a rich patina.
