FAQs

Tea strainers became essential dining accessories as loose-leaf tea grew in popularity during the 18th and 19th centuries, designed to catch loose leaves when pouring from the pot.

They are typically crafted from sterling silver using stamping, piercing, and soldering techniques, often featuring delicate pierced patterns and accompanying drip bowls.

Authentic pieces feature clear British hallmarks stamped into the metal, indicating the makers mark, the standard mark for sterling silver, the assay office, and a date letter.

It can be displayed on a sideboard or used functionally during afternoon tea gatherings to add a touch of heritage craftsmanship to contemporary table settings.

Clean gently with a specialist silver cloth to remove tarnish, avoiding harsh chemical dips, and store in a dry environment away from direct sunlight.
