Moonstone Tea Infuser with Raw Crystal

This tea infuser pairs a premium stainless steel mesh basket with a raw moonstone charm on a delicate chain. One of the most elegant and personal pieces in the series — sure to draw admiring glances.

Characteristics
Moonstone belongs to the feldspar mineral group (orthoclase or adularia variety). The internal light effect (adularescence) arises from light scattering between the stone's layers and appears differently depending on the viewing angle. Every raw piece has a unique shape and shimmer. The steel-grey tones of the mesh create an elegant contrast with the moonstone's milky-white blue play of light.
How to Use
Fill the mesh basket with loose-leaf tea, place it over your mug and pour hot water. After steeping, lift out the basket using the chain. Rinse the mesh under running water and wipe the moonstone charm with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged soaking and strong impacts — moonstone has medium hardness, so handle it with care.
Why Choose This?
The Moonstone Tea Infuser is a gift for those who appreciate the subtler beauties of nature. Moonstone's shimmer is not flashy but rather soft and mysterious — it looks truly special catching the morning light on a table. Particularly recommended for women, romantically inclined tea lovers, and those drawn to lunar symbolism.
Tips
