This Vintage Traditional Russian "Podstakannik" (under the glass) Tea Glass Holder (circa 1960) is made of aluminum. It is an Old Russian tradition, drinking tea from a glass with a Tea Glass Holder "Podstakannik". The metal absorbs the heat of the boiling water so the glass never breaks and the tea is kept warm. It is always special to drink tea the Russian way and it is becoming more popular in America and Western Europe. This antique holder would make the perfect match for any of our tea glasses.
