Tea Strainer with Holder in 925 Silver, Set with Niello, 2 Pieces — Solaria

A strainer, a holder, the same blossom. This newly made silver tea strainer with holder is a set: an over-the-cup strainer with two handle plates and a strainer holder, both with niello blossoms. The gift box is included. A gift for tea lovers, above all for Christmas.

Silver tea strainer with holder: over-the-cup strainer and strainer holder as a set

The set consists of two pieces and a gift box. The over-the-cup strainer is an oval dish with a hemispherical hollow. The base and lower wall are perforated, and two flat handle plates with a curved edge project to the sides.

The strainer holder is a vessel with a slightly flared rim on a short foot. Both pieces are newly made at SevChern in Veliky Ustyug.

Blossoms on the plates, a band on the holder

Each handle plate bears a tulip bud, a large blossom and tendrils. The diamond centre of the blossom is engraved by hand.

Niello remains a narrow zone here: the two plates and a band below the rim of the holder. Rim and foot are polished smooth, the hollow is matt; the dark remains the exception.

The same blossom on strainer and holder can be read as a pair that comes together over tea.

The strainer rests on the holder

In the photo of the gift box, the strainer rests on the holder, bedded in a satin insert. The hollow of the strainer is matt inside, the holder is satin-finished inside.

The perforation runs through the base and the lower wall. The strainer is intended for tea or herbs, as the manufacturer puts it.

For Christmas, for tea lovers

Under the tree lies the gift box, and whoever opens it sees strainer and holder side by side on the satin.

The set can also be given for a birthday, to someone who drinks their tea loose.

The strainer holder has a smooth surface for a name

After checking, an engraving is possible, for example on the smooth body of the strainer holder below the band. We look at the piece, then we settle the lines together. It is charged per piece; if both are to carry one, that makes two.

If you wish, a SilberVerse card comes with the set, available free on request. The verse is designed individually for the occasion and the names; the photo card measures 15 × 10 cm.
