Technical details
Loose Leaf Tea Infuser That Dives In
The Diver Tea Infuser is a loose leaf tea infuser shaped like a deep-sea diver figure. It sits on the rim of your mug and submerges into your tea while steeping. Made from food-safe stainless steel mesh, it holds enough loose leaf tea for a single cup. The mesh basket keeps leaves contained during steeping and is easy to rinse clean. Hand washing is recommended to keep the detail work looking its best.
The Real Difference
Loose Leaf Tea, Finally Worth the Fuss
Believe me, once you brew with loose leaf instead of those little bags, there is no going back. The Diver Tea Infuser makes that step easy and, well, a little bit fun. No more fiddling with flimsy mesh pouches or fishing leaves out of your cup. You get a proper steep, a proper cup, and a tiny diver hanging off the rim to make you smile before your first sip.
What It's Made Of
Stainless Steel Loose Leaf Infuser, Built to Last
This loose leaf infuser is made from food-safe stainless steel mesh, so no plastic touching your hot tea, no rust, no funny taste. The diver figure is sturdy enough to handle daily use, and the mesh basket is fine enough to catch even smaller cut leaves without letting them escape into your cup. Mind you, it is also just a genuinely charming little thing to have on your kitchen shelf.
Picture This
Your Morning Mug, Meet Your New Diver
You spoon your loose leaf tea into the little basket, hook the diver over the rim of your favorite mug, and pour your hot water right over him. He bobs there, doing his job, while you do yours. When your steep is done, you lift him out, give him a quick rinse, and that is that. No mess, no drama, just a good cup of tea and a moment that feels a little more like yours.
Day In, Day Out
The Loose Leaf Infuser That Earns Its Spot
Let me tell you, the best tea tools are the ones you actually reach for every single morning without thinking twice. The Diver sits right there by the kettle, ready to go. Rinsing it takes about ten seconds. It does not stain, it does not bend out of shape, and it does not disappear into the back of a drawer. Between you and me, that is a higher bar than most kitchen gadgets manage to clear.

FAQ
Your Questions, Answered
Will this infuser work with any mug?
The Diver is designed to hook over the rim of a standard mug. It works best with a regular-sized cup. Very wide or very narrow rims might not hold it as securely, so it is worth keeping that in mind before you order, dear.
Is it fine to put in the dishwasher?
Hand washing is recommended to keep the diver figure and the mesh in good shape over time. A quick rinse under warm water right after steeping is honestly all it needs, and it takes no time at all.
How much loose leaf tea does the basket hold?
The basket is sized for a single cup serving. It holds enough loose leaf tea for one good mug of tea at a time, which is exactly right for a quiet morning or an afternoon break on your own.
Will small loose leaf tea particles get through the mesh?
The stainless steel mesh is fine enough to contain most loose leaf teas, including smaller cut leaves. Very finely ground teas like some rooibos blends may leave a little sediment, but for the vast majority of loose leaf teas it does a clean job.
Is this a good gift for a tea lover?
Well now, it really is. The diver design makes it feel like a proper little gift rather than just a kitchen tool. It works beautifully paired with a small tin of loose leaf tea, and it is the kind of thing a tea lover will actually use every day.

What are your delivery times?
Orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days, and US delivery usually takes 5 to 12 business days. You will receive tracking by email as soon as your order ships.
How can I track my order?
As soon as your order ships, you receive an email with your tracking number and a link to follow the delivery in real time.
Which teapot do you recommend for a beginner?
For beginners we often recommend a ceramic or glass teapot: easy to use, easy to clean, and they suit every kind of tea while you find your favorites.
How do I choose the right teapot size?
It depends on your habits. For one person, 10 to 17 oz is ideal. For a couple, aim for 20 to 34 oz, and for families or hosting, 34 oz and up.
Can I use the same teapot for different teas?
You can, but we recommend dedicated teapots for strong teas: unglazed clay and cast iron keep a memory of the tea. Glass, porcelain and stainless steel stay neutral between teas.
Do you offer a warranty on your products?
Yes, all our products are guaranteed for 1 year against manufacturing defects, on top of the 30-day money-back guarantee.
Can I return an item if I am not satisfied?
Absolutely. We offer a 30-day return policy: if a product does not suit you, email teatime@luluteapot.com and we will make it right.
