Verdant Tea

This tempered glass pitcher is a versatile tool for brewing tea. It can be used to pour steeped tea from a teapot or gaiwan for each tea without dripping.

The glass pitcher is also a perfect tool for brewing green teas as it holds the right temperature for more delicate brews and shows off the tremendous beauty and color of the leaves as you steep your tea
