A tea-sieve specifically made to fit inside a thermos bottle. Lets you prepare loose-leaf teas and be able to drink them all day! Most useful thing ever!

Related: some coffee cups.

Arcopal Volcan, late '70s/early 80's. Quality, beautiful design & craftmanship. I don't know any modern product that comes near. Almost as old as I am, used daily, but looks new. Weren't expensive either. Just hard to find.

Each time I pick it up, sip my coffee, or hold it in sunlight, my day is a little more joyful vs. using regular store-bought mug.

Manufacturer taking pride in their skills & doing what they can to fabricate the best product possible, vs. today's race-to-the bottom cheap crap where enduser opinion doesn't matter as long as a profit can be made.

Can you share which make/type? I’ve found the Oxo tea ball to be the simplest tea brewing device - very easy to clean and easy to travel with: https://www.oxo.com/twisting-tea-ball.html
David's Tea sells a nice thermos like this. It is almost too insulated though, stuff never cools down!
