The quirky collection comes with two tea strainers -- one that is shaped like a cylindrical disc that makes stirring and cleaning simple and another that is ring-shaped that can be attached to the rim of a mug for a unique look. The ring-shaped tea strainers come with a holder that they can be hung on when they are not in use, that also opens up to [store tea leaves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/und).
