Tea Ball

In the mid-1800's, a metal tea ball was invented and with it came a device that would automatically lift it out of the tea after a given number of minutes!

This is the traditional stainless steel tea ball on a chain. Be sure to check the size of your teapot opening and choose the size that will fit. 1 cup size measures 1.75" across; 2 cup size measures 2" across; 4 cup size measures 2.5" across; 6 cup size measures 3" across.
