A Brief History Of Tea Strainers.

Tea has ancient roots dating back to 2,700 B.C. in China. Tea strainers were tools used in this brewing process, and the earliest models were likely made of bamboo. Throughout history, these strainers evolved into being made of various materials such as stainless steel, sterling silver, china, porcelain, silicon, and linen.
The popularity of tea strainers surged in Victorian England with the debut of strainer baskets and slotted spoons. During the 1800s, strainers were made from luxurious materials like sterling silver. Despite the advancement in the mass production of tea bags in the 20th century, many tea connoisseurs still prefer using strainers.
