What is the loose tea infuser made of? And what shape?

Good morning, Mark. The loose tea infuser is cylinder shaped and made out of glass. I hope you find this information helpful. Adreanna, Wind & Weather Customer Service

It is made of clear glass, if would say the shape is like a normal tea pot, the picture is exactly what you get.

Yes, very simply pull it out of the top. My model has a soft rubber gasket which holds the infuser in place.

Mine is 3" tall, diameter at the bottom is 2 1/8", diameter at flare under lip is about 3". I have mugs rather than tea cups and it works with all of them except for one with a 3" diameter rim. The infuser doesn't quite fit at the top. Hope this helps.

Yes. Just make sure the amount of water you pour in will cover all of the loose leaf tea in the infuser.

I looked and it appears it is ceramic. I love the pot and use it all the time but I just drop the tea into the bottom of the pot. The holes in the infuser are too large to make it useful.

The pyramid box is about the size of a regular tea bag. I'm not a tea drinker, so I don't know what an infuser is, but I'm pretty sure the box I got included only the tea bags (48 of them). I bought this for my daughter last Christmas who fell in love with the tea bags when they were served to her on vacation. They are tasty teas.

I invested in a pitcher with the loose leaf tea filter and adding the infuser was a nice addition. It keeps the fruit in the pitcher for more flavor VS it going into the glass. Hope this helps.

I honestly am not sure what it said it was made of, when I got it. But it seems like nylon - (it's slick and comes clean better than my reusable teabags. It keeps from staining like teabags as well). I hope that helps.

The holes at the base of the spout are appropriately small, though loose tea would probably go through them. The holes "are not pin hole" sized like you would see on an infuser. Stephanie in Virginia Beach

The whole infuser is just under six and a half inches. The slot for the tea is about three inches.

The bottom part of the infuser is 1.75", but the top is 2.375" with a .25" metal rim. It is also 3" deep. I have my doubts about your teapot, but it will fit nicely in the average cup.

Hello! You could fit some diced ginger in the tea infuser and use it the way they suggest. I'm fairly certain stainless steel and silicone can withstand heat just fine, but maybe you can find a better product for what you're looking to do. Something meant to be completely submerged. Hope this helped!

About 4 1/2" tall and just about as wide. I didn't realize it comes with its own infuser. I love it, perfect for tea for two.

My guess, it's a rubberized silicon blend of some sort. It stays cool, grips well and makes hanging on to a hot pot easy. The more I use this pot the better I like it. Use it every day. Heat water for tea and coffee.

I don't know, but as far as an infuser goes, it's top of the line. It is very good quality, it cleans easily and, in my opinion, it will never wear out. I have bought several, and this is the one for me.

Yes put loose tea in the metal infuser put the infuser in the tea pot and put boiled water in tea pot. After about two minutes remove the tea leaves or the whole infuser and drink your tea

The infuser is about 3 1/2" across; the lip is about 1/4" across. The height is around 3".
