Know before you buy
Hand wash the spoon with mild soap and water, then dry it immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots. Avoid using the dishwasher, as the harsh detergents can damage the finish.
Yes, the spoon is designed to develop a natural, unique patina as it reacts to air and moisture. This darkening process is a hallmark of high-quality brass and adds character to the piece.
Absolutely. Brass is a durable, heat-conductive metal that works perfectly for stirring tea or honey. Just be aware that the metal may become warm to the touch if left in a very hot beverage for an extended period.
The spoon measures 4.75 inches in length. Its compact size makes it ideal for reaching into standard tea tins and canisters.
While it is designed for measuring loose-leaf tea and stirring honey, it is also perfectly safe to use with other dry goods like sugar, spices, or coffee grounds.
