Distinct Design & Quality Craftsmanship
- Unique hand-hammered texture: The surface of this strainer is finished with traditional hand hammering, creating one-of-a-kind textured details that boost its vintage rustic feel and non-slip grip when held.
- Comfortable twine-wrapped handle: The handle is wrapped with natural hemp twine, which adds a warm organic touch to the metal body, while also providing heat insulation and a slip-proof grip for comfortable handling.
- Premium tin material: Made of durable solid tin, this strainer is rust-resistant, easy to clean, and built to last for years of regular tea use. The soft silvery tone complements any style of tea set perfectly.
- Fine evenly spaced mesh: The carefully designed mesh holes efficiently trap loose tea leaves and debris, giving you perfectly smooth, clear cup of tea every time without slowing down the pouring process.
