Description
Hand-painted in pleasant torquoise hues, this tea set has a low profile and yet is effortlessly charming. In the Chinese tradition, tea is usually brewed in small pots like this one, and then decanted into a pitcher before serving. The advantage of this method is that you can enjoy the evolving character of the tea as the leaves brew in several successive waters. When each brewing is complete, the pot is emptied into the pitcher to stop the steeping and to rest the tea for a few minutes. This consolidates the flavors before the liquid is finally poured into individual cups to serve and enjoy. Four matching cups make it a beautiful set for four people. Enjoy a morning tea moment with loved ones, or a casual chat over tea with dear friends.
