Picked the flower charm and it's the perfect size for a single mug of loose leaf — the stainless ball rinses clean in seconds, no soggy leaves stuck in the hinge. The bronze charm has a nice weight to it too.
The teapot charm is such a cute detail and it hasn't tarnished at all after a few weeks of daily use. The stainless ball is small, so I do have to use loose leaf rather than big chunks, but it rinses clean in seconds.
