“Cat's Fortune” - Portable Tea Set With Rotating Strainer

Lucky Cat Symbolism

The Maneki Neko motif invites prosperity and good vibes—a global icon of fortune, turning every daily tea ritual into a positive and joyful moment.

Design Inspiration

The Maneki Neko has become one of the most recognized symbols of luck and hospitality worldwide—but in its design, it represents curiosity, playfulness, and the appreciation of small everyday moments.

We sculpted the top piece as a beckoning lucky cat not as a gimmick, but because we believe the objects you reach for every day should make you smile. The rounded, chubby silhouette also solves a practical problem: the domed shape creates a perfect seal, and the sculptural ears and details give you a natural, secure grip point when lifting.

The beechwood sphere handle is a nod to traditional Chinese gongfu teapots, where a single large knob keeps your fingers away from the heat without adding visual noise.

Seamless Rotating Strainer

Twist to steep and pour with absolute ease. The precision integrated infuser ensures mess-free, optimal extraction of loose-leaf teas on the go, with the pot holding everything compactly.

Dual-Function Decor & Space Saving

The large host cup doubles elegantly as a decorative beckoning cat lid, blending whimsy with nesting functionality for seamless travel storage and a conversation-starting display.

Ergonomic Wooden Ball Handle

A large wooden sphere provides exceptional heat insulation and a sculptural, secure grip—safe, comfortable, and aesthetically minimal.

Natural, Sustainable Materials

Crafted from ultra-pure high-grade borosilicate glass, premium porcelain, and natural wood. Completely non-toxic, eco-friendly, and perfectly aligned with mindful lifestyles.

Festive Gifting Exclusivity

Its unique design makes it a standout holiday gift—perfect for Christmas or New Year surprises, fostering emotional connections through shared tea moments and bringing fortune to your loved ones.

FAQ

Q: How does the rotating strainer work?
A: The strainer sits suspended inside the teapot, resting on two small support points on the inner wall that fit into two corresponding notches on the strainer. The teapot rotates around the strainer — when you turn the pot, the strainer stays still. This means you can pour and stop the infusion simply by rotating the teapot body, without lifting or removing any separate part. Avoid rotating the pot too forcefully or at an extreme angle to prevent dislodging. Handle gently to protect ceramic support points from chipping.

Q: What teas work best in this set?
A: Oolong, white tea, green tea, and light pu-erh. The 170ml capacity is designed for gongfu-style brewing — multiple short steeps of 15–45 seconds. For western-style single steeps, use it with white or green teas at 80–85°C.

Q: Can I brew herbal or fruit teas in this set?
A: Yes, though we recommend checking that the pieces are fully dried between uses if switching between herbal and traditional teas, as strong aromas can linger in porcelain.

Q: Is the glass pot heat-resistant?
A: Yes. The teapot is made from high-grade borosilicate glass, which is safe for direct pouring of boiling water (100°C / 212°F).

Q: Does this come ready to gift?
A: Yes. The set comes with a structured travel carry case that doubles as packaging. No additional gift wrapping is required. All pieces nest securely inside.

Q: How many people can this serve?
A: The set includes one 170ml teapot, two 40ml guest cups, and one 70ml host cup — designed for 1–2 people sharing a tea session, or one person brewing multiple steeps.

Q: How to pack after use?
A: Nest the cups sequentially and place inside the protective travel case as per the layout guide.
