A tea scoop helps portion loose-leaf tea and guide it into a teapot or gaiwan. SEKIMONO's seven copper tea scoops share the same material and hand-finished, surface-colored production approach, but differ in length, width, motif and price.

Compare by length
The lineup ranges from approximately 112 mm to 185 mm long. Hidden Landscape is the most compact; Bright Moon, Clear Breeze is the longest and narrowest. The other five designs sit between 157 and 170 mm.
If your tea table is compact, total length matters because a scoop can compete for space with a teapot, fairness pitcher and cups. On a larger setup, a longer scoop can become a stronger visual element.
Compare by width
Widths range from approximately 49 to 66 mm. Bright Moon, Clear Breeze is the narrowest at 49 mm, while Gold & Jade is the widest at 66 mm.
Width changes both the visual proportion and the amount of leaf the scoop can comfortably hold at once, so compare it with the opening of the teapot or gaiwan you use most often.
Compare by motif
- Landscape: Hidden Landscape.
- Botanical: Plum Blossoms of Jiangnan, Bamboo & Stone, Pomegranate.

How to choose
- Measure your tea space. Check how much room remains after your teapot, cups and pitcher are placed.
- Check your teapot or gaiwan opening. A wider scoop may feel more natural with a wider opening; a slim scoop can suit a tighter setup.
- Choose the motif you want to see every session. Function is similar across the seven pieces, so visual preference matters.
- Compare current price and availability. Five designs are currently $79 and two are $89.

Frequently asked questions
Are all seven tea scoops made from the same material?
Yes. All seven are copper pieces made in Wuxi, Jiangsu, China with hand-finishing and a surface color treatment.
Do I need a tea scoop for Gongfu tea?
It is not mandatory, but it gives you a dedicated tool for portioning dry leaves and transferring them into your brewing vessel without using your hands.
