The gourd-shaped body is pressed from pure titanium and finished with a high-temperature crystallization treatment that produces a fine, frost-like texture across the surface. A traditional Chinese knotted cord with a silk tassel hangs from the handle, adding a quietly decorative touch that is very much in the spirit of classical tea culture. The set includes a solid wood display base that keeps the strainer upright and steady between pours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePure Titanium Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e — Titanium does not rust, warp, or develop mold with regular use and exposure to moisture — three of the most common failure points in bamboo and stainless steel strainers. The fine mesh is formed from the same material as the body, with no soldered joints or separate components that can corrode or loosen over time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGourd Silhouette\u003c\/strong\u003e — The double-curve gourd form is one of the most culturally resonant shapes in Chinese decorative art, associated with good fortune and classical craftsmanship. Here it functions as the strainer body, with the upper curve serving as the handle and the lower cup housing the fine titanium mesh.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Temperature Crystalline Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e — The exterior is treated with a high-temperature crystallization process that creates a fine, mineral texture across the titanium surface. The finish gives the strainer a depth and subtlety that plain polished or brushed metal cannot match.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensional Stability\u003c\/strong\u003e — Pure titanium maintains its shape under repeated heat exposure and does not deform, expand, or contract with temperature changes the way thinner metals can. The mesh stays flat and the body stays true over time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplete Set with Base and Tassel Cord\u003c\/strong\u003e — The strainer arrives with a solid wood display base sized to hold it upright, and a traditional Chinese knotted cord with a silk tassel that serves as both a handle accent and a visual detail consistent with Eastern tea aesthetics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pure titanium (strainer); solid wood (base)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.4 cm (L) × 4.5 cm (H); opening diameter 7.8 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-temperature crystallization surface treatment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tea strainer, solid wood base, Chinese knotted cord with silk tassel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dehua, Fujian\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rinse with warm water after each use and wipe dry; the titanium mesh can be gently rinsed under running water to clear fine particles; avoid abrasive scrubbers on the crystalline surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlace the wood base on your tea tray and set the strainer in it, mesh-side up, between uses.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen ready to pour, hold the strainer by the gourd handle or the knotted cord over the fairness pitcher or cup opening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePour the brewed tea from the teapot through the strainer.

Rinsing under running warm water after each session is generally sufficient to keep the mesh clear. For deeper cleaning, a soft brush and warm water can be used without damaging the titanium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does the crystalline finish affect the strainer’s performance?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: No. The crystalline finish is applied to the exterior surface only.
