Short-Handled Silver-Plated Tea Strainer with Nest by Harney & Sons
Available to Ship: 3-7 Business Days
An openwork rim and silver-plated brass give this short-handled tea strainer a traditional presence over the cup. It catches leaves as tea is poured from the pot, then rests in its matching nest to keep the tray tidy.
“I would place the nest beside the cup before pouring, so the wet strainer has a proper place to rest immediately afterward.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Care & Ownership
Empty the leaves promptly. Hand-wash with mild dish soap and warm water, rinse and dry immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads, chlorine cleaners and prolonged soaking. Lift tarnish gently with a cloth suitable for silver plate, following the cloth’s instructions; do not scrub the perforations.
Maker / Heritage
John Harney learned tea blending from Stanley Mason while managing the White Hart Inn in Salisbury, Connecticut, before founding Harney & Sons in 1983. The family’s approach joins close attention to tea origins with an enthusiasm for creating new blends. Mike Harney’s experience tasting fine wine helped shape his attention to a tea’s aroma, body and finish; Paul helped bring the company’s blends into its signature sachets. That combination makes exploring the collection feel personal rather than formal. Tea-table accessories and mixed gifts are selected to complement the pleasure of preparing, serving and sharing a good cup.
