Mookaite Tea Infuser with Raw Crystal

This tea infuser pairs a premium stainless steel mesh basket with a raw mookaite charm on a delicate chain. Recommended for tea lovers who appreciate warmth and earthy character in their everyday objects. No two mookaite pieces are alike.

Characteristics
Mookaite is a silica-rich rock whose colourful banding is created by microfossils deposited over millions of years. The fine mesh keeps tea leaves out of your cup, while the raw stone surface gives the infuser an organic, natural feel. Its size and weight are ideal for single-handed use.
How to Use
Fill the mesh basket with loose-leaf tea, place it over your mug and pour hot water. After steeping for 3–5 minutes, lift out the basket using the chain. Rinse the mesh under running water and wipe the mookaite charm with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the stone in hot water for extended periods.
