Here I Have A Vintage Tea Ball Steeper.
I believe its an aluminum Tea Strainer.
They come with a hook & chain to hang on your Tea Cup or Tea Pot. Some come with a decorative weight. I have another one with candy cane weight.
Infuser Ball comes apart to hold loose, or bagged Tea.
Measures approximately...
3 inches tall
not including hook & chain.
Very good Vintage condition, small dings & patina. But I have never been unable to open it.
So although it could also be used to securely hold herbs & spices for flavoring soups, stews & beverages. It sits on display for now.

Thanks so much for the loves
Wow...it reminds me the one that the old women in the movie "Rosemary's baby" used to keep the tannis root inside...that was a little bit different looking, but the purpose was the same :)

Oh lovely. I love these little things. I have one in the shape of a teapot:)
Thank you VF :) I've never seen one shaped like a teapot. I bet it's very pretty.
