Sterling Silver Tea Strainer Pierced Bowl + Pot Spigot Hanger 2.5" Diam 20 Grams

Description

This sterling silver tea strainer is for catching loose tea out when tea is poured from teapot into the cup.  The bowl of the tea strainer is decoratively pierced.  The edges are decorated with beading.  The wire pin securely fits into the teapot's spigot so it's always handy when pouring tea.
Total silver weight is 20 grams.
I've looked everywhere for the hallmarks on this piece.  Since finding none, I have acid- tested silver purity to confirm I could safely call this sterling.  Guaranteed as solid silver alloy of at least 90%.
Dimensions:
2.5" diameter x 1" deep, excluding wire hanging device.  Spigot pin is 2.75" long.  Wire handle adds 2" in height.
Not weighted.
Condition: Excellent giftable condition. No monogram or inscription.  Most notable issues are 1) a ping on the bowl's outside bottom as shown in photo #x, and 2) Bend in hanger wire as shown in photo #x. No other reportable issues, such as flat spots, nicks, dents, pings, dings, bashes, unusual scratches, bends, monogram removals, carbon spots, or other blemishes. Faint surface abrasions create patina consistent with age and use. Pattern is still crisp and not worn away. Recent thorough hand polish.
Always happy to pass through discounts on combined shipping. I only charge actual postage, and always use recycled packing materials.
Note some photos appear redundant because I take photos from all possible angles.  On symmetrical items, these photos may appear redundant when there are no distinguishing differences or condition issues between side views.
I gladly accept returns, but please note I do not pay return postage unless there was a significant error in my description.
The item listed is being sold as is, as pictured and as described to the best of my knowledge. All dimensions and weights approximate.

Remember, when buying vintage expect imperfections as these items have a history and have been in the possession of others. I try to list EVERY flaw which would be commented on something in an antique or vintage condition – this does not mean all imperfections resulting from normal wear & use require comment. My goal is to have no rude surprises upon receipt.
