Woven Brass Tea Basket

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. Place loose herbs within the basket and place in a mug or tea pot, and pour hot water through it. Steep tea for as long as recommended. These tea baskets are 100% brass, coated in a clear food-grade finish. Measures 2 x .75".
