This glass tea mug turns the act of brewing tea into an artistic presentation. Loose tea leaves are placed into the glass infuser, hot water is added and when the water reaches the desired color or strength, the infuser is lifted out along with all the loose leaves. The lid is turned upside down on the table to act like a coaster. The tea infuser is placed on the coaster to no tea drips onto your table. With its wide loop handle, the mug can be picked up and carried without fingers touching the hot glass. Tea flowers look beautiful in the mug, too and work best without the infuser. Made of lightweight yet laboratory-strength borosilicate glass that won’t stain, the mug may be used on the stovetop or in the microwave and both the mug and infuser are dishwasher-safe. For the tea drinker, Primula also sells a glass teapot and packets of tea flowers, which are AA-grade green tea leaves and actual dried flowers that are hand-sewn into tight balls by artisans in China. After a tea flower ball is place in hot water, it will slowly sink to the bottom and unfurl into full “bloom.” Some even have two different kinds of flowers that unfurl into a colorful spectacle and add flavor to the tea.

A small fragile gem… …it is a 12 ounce 3-piece set: Lid, infuser, cup.Out of the box, my first impression was looks and feels fragile, but so do most laboratory grade glass. I like the fact that it is made of this borosilicate glass. Resistant to thermal shock, hard to stain, and microwave friendly. The glass is thin, so more fragile than most glassware I have at home. Handle with care, and keep away from children. The glass can handle the high pressure spray of a dishwasher, but might not survive…

Exactly what I was looking for I adore this Tea-Maker! I’m not one to write reviews unless I feel strongly on way or the other, and this is definitely one of those items that I just had to gush about. I was on the hunt for an all-glass tea press (plastic+food/drink turns me off, and I’m very sensitive to the taste of metal), and this fits the bill.I love the borosilicate glass (I throw…
