Excuse me, waiter, there’s a baby shark in my tea!
Offering more beauty than bite, the shark-shaped ‘Sharky’ tea-infuser designed by Pablo Matteoda took out third place in a recent design competition called “beyond silver,” held by Designboom.
Who would have thought that the act of making a cup of tea could be so aesthetically pleasing?
It looks bloody awesome!
