Description
This heart tea infuser is made from polished stainless steel, shaped as a neat little heart that holds your loose tea and lowers into your cup on a fine chain. Both halves are pierced with rows of small holes, so hot water flows freely through the leaves while they stay inside. The two halves open on a hinge for filling and close again around the tea. The chain ends in a small hook that clips over the rim of a cup or mug, so the heart sits in the drink and lifts straight out when the tea is as strong as you like it. The heart itself is about 4cm across, 2cm deep and 5cm tall without the chain, and the whole piece is about 16.5cm high overall.
It is a simple way to brew one cup of loose tea without filling a whole pot, whether that is a morning mug in the kitchen or an afternoon cup at your desk. Drop it into a teapot instead and the chain keeps it within easy reach for lifting out. The heart shape adds a sweet touch to the tea tray, and it is small enough to keep in a kitchen drawer, a tea caddy or a desk drawer at work.
Stainless steel makes it a practical choice for daily use, and it can be washed in the dishwasher on the top rack. For everyday care, tip out the used leaves and rinse it under the tap straight after brewing, then let it dry fully before you close it and put it away. Light and compact, it makes an easy little gift tucked into a card or set beside a packet of loose tea, and a lovely way to share the simple pleasure of a proper brew.
