The Bodum Shin Cha Tea Press is made from durable, heat-resistant borosilicate glass. Designed after the traditional teapot shape, the Shin Cha tea press combines timeless lines with modern functionality. The Shin Cha puts an end to bitter, over brewed tea. Once you press, you can rest assured that your first cup and your third cup will taste exactly the same. There's no need to remove the filter and there's no mess. What you have left is the true unforgettable and delicious taste of your preferred tea. No Bodum teapot design recalls the simplicity of the traditional British teapot as does the Shin Cha. The handcrafted spout and borosilicate glass sphere give it a classic look - uniting beauty and function. The Shin Cha is dishwasher safe and the glass teapot is microwave safe. Comes in 0.5 and 1 litre sizes
