Description

Tea tastes better when it stays in the cup and off your fingers. This polished 304 stainless shell holds loose leaves, dried flowers or herbs and clips over any cup rim. Steep, lift it out, and your tea ritual stays tidy from first pour to last.

A decorative scallop-shell tea infuser in 304 stainless steel that hangs over any cup

Solves
  • loose tea leaves floating in the cup
  • messy hands when removing used leaves
  • need for a separate strainer for flowers and herbs

Loose tea that stays in the cup, not on your fingers

A polished 304 stainless shell holds your leaves, buds or herbs and clips over the rim of any cup. Steep, lift it out, and every sip stays clean from the first pour to the last.

Built for loose leaf, not for tea bags

  • Load it wide open

    Pinch the spring handle and the shell opens far enough to drop in loose leaves or dried jasmine and rose buds without spilling them across the counter. Close it and the buds stay put while the water works through.

  • Fine holes, full flavor

    The shell is perforated all over, so hot water reaches the leaves from every side. It handles dried flowers and herbs as well as broken leaf tea, and the 304 steel rinses clean under the tap.

  • Hangs over the rim, lifts out clean

    The clip hooks over the edge of any cup and the looped handle tail keeps the shell suspended in the water. When the steep is done, lift the handle and the used leaves come with it, so nothing settles at the bottom of the cup.

Brew it in four moves

  1. 1
    Open the shell

    Pinch the clamp handle and the scallop shell opens along its hinge.

  2. 2
    Add your leaves

    Fill the basket with loose tea, dried flowers or herbs, then close the shell over them.

  3. 3
    Clip it on the rim

    Hang the shell over the edge of your cup so the basket sits in the water and the handle tail rests inside.

  4. 4
    Steep and lift

    Pour hot water over the leaves and let them steep. Lift the handle out when the cup is strong enough, then rest the shell on a saucer to drain.

Compact enough for a single cup

  • 15.5 cmLength
  • 5.3 cmWidth

Questions and answers

Will it stay steady on the rim of my mug?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. The clip hooks over the cup edge and the handle tail rests inside, so the shell hangs in the water instead of sliding in. Fill it with a normal pinch of leaves rather than packing it full and it hangs steady on any cup.

Does the basket hold enough leaf for a full cup?
w
Wanelo · seller

It holds a generous pinch of loose leaf, a few spoonfuls of dried flowers, or a handful of herbs. Fill it loosely so the leaves can open. Jasmine and rose buds expand as they steep, so leave some room at the top of the shell.

Does it clean easily after jasmine or rose residue?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. Stainless steel does not soak up scent the way wood or plastic does. Tip out the spent petals, rinse the shell under warm water and let it dry with the clamp open so no moisture gets trapped in the hinge.

Is one steel shell really better than a mesh strainer?
w
Wanelo · seller

It replaces the separate strainer you would otherwise use for flowers and herbs. The shell hangs over the cup, so you never fish soggy leaves out with a spoon. 304 stainless is a durable material, and a single well-made tool for every loose blend is the easier way to keep a tea rack tidy.

Is it only for tea, or can I use it for herbs and spices too?
w
Wanelo · seller

Both. It works with loose tea, dried flowers, herbal blends and spices. The shell is sized for a single cup, so it suits daily brewing at home, at a desk or when you have guests over.
