Bodum Clara Borosilicate Kettle by Ami Kealoha
Made from near-indestructible borosilicate glass, Bodum's new Clara kettle makes tea time into a better-tasting and more visual experience. The non-porous glass doesn't give off any odors or flavors, which is a must for the more delicate white and green teas out there. It's suitable for use on gas, ceramic or electric stovetops, as well as for use in microwaves (provided the lid and whistle are off).
Overall, we dig the compact size, quality materials, the dash of color and the laboratory feel of the white text printed on its surface—who ever said tea time had to be precious?
The Clara is $60 from Bodum.

Toaster Challenge
The household toaster serves a simple purpose, but some models do it better than others. At CH we take this responsibility very seriously, and in hopes of separating the best from the average, we recently pitted four models from different manufacturers in a head-to-heat toast-off and recorded our highly subjective results. The toasters we used were the Alessi SG68, Viking VT200, Breville Smart Toaster BTA820XL...

Drop Stop Tea Strainer
A great solution to the age-old problem of where to put the tea bag or strainer after steeping tea, the Drop Stop Tea Strainer is the a clever all-in-one solution. Though there's a certain charm to vintage "I will hold the tea bag" dishes the Drop Stop is an elegant, clutter reducing approach to the dilemma. The stainless steel strainer hangs on the rim while...

Steep Design
"This is what happens when designers and connoisseurs meet for tea," says Gamila Design, creators of The Tea Stick. Touted as one of the most operative ways to brew a perfect cup, this stainless steel device beats out both paper tea bags and "pour-over" steeping systems in both ease of use and sleek sexiness. It's a simple mechanism with no breakable parts; scoop the...

Sorapot
Tea is a very ritualistic pleasure. I still refuse to buy those efficient electric kettles because the process of setting the kettle to boil and the impending urgent whistle are aspects of tea consumption that set my day in motion. Joey Roth's Sorapot embraces the ritualistic aspects of tea drinking with its clear container for viewing the tea leaves as they seep into the...

Kor One Water Vessel
The Kor One Hydration Vessel elevates the humble water bottle to new aesthetic and functional levels. Forget Voss, Smart Water, and Jeff. Face it, we need privatized bottled water like we need more internal combustion engines on our freeways. Getting people off the bottled water habit is no small feat though. City dwellers in particular, relish the convenience of a deli-bought bottle, preferring to...

Infinity Aquarium
Part of their Forever! series, BCXSY designed this polygonal aquarium so that fish endlessly swim around the geometrical shape. Similar to modern-day insane asylums, which are designed with connected lap-like hallways instead of dead end hallways, the fish can swim around in circles 'till their heart's content. It's hand-crafted from hand-cut glass and you can find more info and a video at BCSXY via...
