FAQs

Tea strainers became widely used in the 18th and 19th centuries as loose-leaf tea gained popularity, requiring a device to catch leaves when pouring from pot to cup.

Traditional tea strainers are primarily constructed from sterling silver or silver-plated metals, often featuring pierced bowls and decorative handles.

Authentic pieces are identified by hallmarks stamped into the metal, indicating the assay office, maker, and standard of silver, along with traditional hand-pierced detailing.

A silver tea strainer can be displayed on a sideboard, bar cart, or open shelving as a functional decorative object that adds metallic reflection and classic charm.

Care involves gentle washing with mild soap and warm water, drying thoroughly with a soft cloth, and using specialist silver polish sparingly to maintain the finish without removing hallmarks.
