The Gap On Your Tea Table
A Beautiful Ritual, Undone By One Ugly Piece Of Gear.
You warm the gaiwan. You clear a quiet corner. Everything about the moment is considered - and then a bare steel-mesh strainer lands on top of it and the whole table goes back to looking improvised.
It is not you. It is the gear. That mesh was designed to do one job cheaply, not to belong to a ceremony.
And even then it half-fails: the fines still slip through and leave dregs at the bottom of the cup. Ordinary to look at. Ordinary in the cup. Your tea deserves the opposite.
The Question Everyone Asks
Beautiful - And It Actually Strains.
Ceramic strainers carry one live doubt: do the leaves and fines really stay out of the cup? Here is exactly how the perforated base handles it - pour by pour.
01
A Base Drilled To Catch Fines
Look closely at the canopy: the ceramic base is drilled with fine holes sized to pass liquor, not leaf. Whole leaves and the tiny broken fines both stay up top.
02
Clear Tea, Straight Through
Pour your brew over the umbrella and watch the tea run clear into the pitcher below. The leaves gather on top; the liquor arrives bright and unbroken.
03
A Cup With No Dregs
The result is the thing the mesh never quite delivered: a clean, sediment-free cup. Nothing gritty at the bottom - just clear tea, every time you pour.
The clear liquor streaming through while the leaves and fines stay behind on top - that is the whole proof. You pour tea over it into your pitcher; gravity does the rest.

Hand-Painted Porcelain Tea-Ware
Held in the Hand, It Reads as Craft
Every detail is made to sit on the tea table as a centerpiece - the painted ้่ฑ canopy, the brass umbrella spoke, the perforated base, and the matching drip saucer. Not a strainer you hide. A piece you display.
Hand-Painted Blue-and-White Porcelain
The canopy carries the traditional ้่ฑ (qฤซnghuฤ) pattern painted by hand onto white porcelain - the same blue-and-white heritage that has defined Chinese tea-ware for centuries. Up close, the brushwork has depth and small variations no printed knockoff can fake.
Brass Spoke, Red Tassel
The umbrella spoke rises in warm brass, finished with a small red tassel - the detail that turns a filter into an ornament worth looking at.
A Base Drilled to Pour Clean
The canopy base is a field of fine ceramic holes - dense enough to hold back loose leaves and fines while clear tea streams through into your pitcher.
Its Own Little Stand
A matching porcelain saucer catches drips between pours and gives the piece a home on the table - so it stays a centerpiece, not a mess.
Ceramic vs. The Steel Mesh
The Beauty Of Ceramic, Without The Eyesore.
Worried ceramic is a downgrade from metal? Because you pour through this - you don't steep in it - the usual ceramic complaints simply don't apply.

Clear tea, no dregs, and it's stunning on the tray. Wish I'd found it sooner.

I gifted this to my mother who has been doing gongfu for years and she teared up a little. The pour looks like a proper ceremony now, and it strains cleaner than her old metal one.

Was honestly nervous it would arrive looking cheap. It did not. The hand-painting is lovely up close and the little saucer is a nice touch.

Beautiful piece and it genuinely filters the fines. Only note - it's a touch smaller than I pictured, but it sits perfectly on my fair-cup, so no complaints really.

Rinses clean in seconds and the tassel makes it feel special. Pouring through it slowed my whole evening down in the best way - it really did turn making tea into a little ritual.
