content: A set of three nested bamboo tea strainers. Two are approximately the same size and the third is slightly smaller. Each is constructed in the same way and of the same material. A long thick strip of bamboo supports a tightly woven circular basket through which water but not tea leaves can pass. They were likely made in Japan and resemble tea strainers used in traditional Japanese tea service.
