Tea Strainer by Andrew Ellicott Warner. Silver tea strainer with a rounded bowl shape and a floral pattern etched into the exterior. The bowl has a slightly flared rim and a handle attached to the top, which is made of thin metal wire that curves upwards. A long, thin metal handle is attached to the top of the wire handle and extends out to the right side. The background is a plain gray color, with a slight shadow cast by the tea strainer on the surface below it. The tea strainer's interior appears to have small holes for straining tea leaves. The overall shape and design of the tea strainer is symmetrical. The object is shiny and reflective.
