Tea strainers?

Where does one find those mesh tea strainers that people pour the brew out of their gaiwan through into either a pitcher or cups? They look kind of like funnels.
 
We get mesh tea strainers here in Britain in the local hardware store or supermarket. Usually less than $1
 
This one is one of the best ive ever found :thumbup1:, notice all the fine particles in the mesh. Its not metal so it doesn't impart any metallic flavors.
 
I'm looking for these kind.

Or this one, but it seems like the shape might not work. Which one would be better for filtering into a cup and a pitcher (once I get one)?


Those types of filters are usually free of charge with most companys. But those filters do not work as well as the mesh type filters. Either type is not hard to find, ebay, ebay, ebay.
