Handmade Yixing Zisha hot Clay Tea Pet Pig FJ1023

Material: Yixing Zisha clay
Dimensions: 58x80x70mm
Origin: China
Description: The tea pet is a small clay figurine that is placed on your tea table, joining you for some tea. Just like Yixing teapots made of the same clay, tea pets are unglazed and hot are mostly monochromatic with a rough surface, that is better to absorb the tea.

A tea pet is typically placed on a tea tray and has tea poured over it during tea time. Due to the tea pet's unglazed nature, the figurine absorbs some of the tea, resulting in the tea pet changing color over time, as well as building up a tea scent.

The price is for one unit only.
