The "Crucian Carp" strainer is a copper tea strainer for tea ceremony and everyday tea drinking. It catches fine leaf particles so the cup holds a clean infusion without sediment.
The strainer is shaped like a wide funnel: the copper surface has a hand-hammered texture and shimmers in a warm rose-gold shade. A fine metal mesh sits in the center, and on the side is a black handle joined to the body by a copper ring with a braided cord.
It will adorn your tea table and add aesthetics to the ritual, while remaining a practical accessory.
