Know before you buy
Yes, the rim-resting design is engineered to sit securely across the opening of most standard mugs and teapots, providing a stable base while your tea steeps.
The fine mesh is specifically designed to catch smaller tea particles and dust, ensuring a clean, sediment-free cup even with finer-cut herbal or rooibos blends.
Both versions are dishwasher-safe, making cleanup straightforward. For the ceramic model, we recommend handling with care to avoid chipping, while the stainless steel is highly durable for daily use.
While the handle is designed for easy lifting, it may retain some heat depending on your water temperature. We recommend using a light touch or a cloth when removing it from a freshly steeped cup.
Absolutely. Its versatile shape allows it to rest comfortably on the rim of most teapots, making it just as effective for brewing a full pot as it is for a single mug.
