Danforth Dragonfly Pewter Tea Infuser & Stainless Steel Ball

The Danforth Dragonfly Tea Infuser combines a stainless steel mesh tea ball with a handcrafted pewter dragonfly charm, designed for brewing loose leaf tea, herbal blends, chai, or floral infusions. The fine mesh strainer contains all tea particles within the infuser, preventing leaves from floating into the cup and ensuring a clean, full-flavored brew in either a mug or teapot. The dragonfly charm attaches to the tea ball via a sturdy chain, serving as a decorative handle that keeps the infuser anchored at the appropriate depth during steeping.

Constructed for durability and food safety, the stainless steel tea ball is resistant to rust and corrosion, suitable for daily reusable use. The dragonfly charm is cast in lead-free, non-toxic pewter that exceeds FDA food safety standards; this material does not tarnish or break, contributing to the product's longevity as a daily-use item. While the pewter charm is handmade by local artisans in Middlebury, Vermont, the stainless steel tea ball component is imported. The product arrives gift boxed, ready for presentation as a hostess gift or occasion present.

This item is part of the Danforth Pewter collection, where pieces are crafted as daily-use heirlooms. The infuser is sold as a single unit (Model 54-029-0568) and includes the mesh tea ball. The design focuses on functional tea preparation with an aesthetic element, avoiding the mess associated with loose leaf brewing while maintaining the integrity of the tea's flavor profile through the containment of solids in the mesh ball.
