Hand blown glass teapot is a unique and affordable present

Hand
made Euro teapot. Teapots have a
real artistic, historic and ethnic value all over
the world. Teapots have become great gift items. The
1st tea pot was developed in China in the 16th Century.
The Japanese drank different teas, including green tea.
By the 18th Century the teapots manufactured at Yixing, China,
were being made in forms which had symbolic significances,
for example, peach shape for extended life and good luck,
pomegranate for many, healthy youngsters.
Early
teapots, when imported to Europe, prompted
potters to develop new variations of teapot culture.
Great Britain, being more keen on tea drinking than the remainder
of Europe, made the teapot their own specialization.
Currently,
tea drinking is making a resurgence in the U.S.
Some suppose Americans are shifting from "happy hour"
to "tea time." Excessive social drinking is
increasingly frowned upon and, with executives facing
shrinking expense budgets, the "power lunch"
is being substituted by the "power tea." Herbal
teas popularized during the 60s are also gaining
acceptance as additional folks try to keep away from caffeine.
Today
we relish an potpourri of gourmet teas.
Many specialized "healthy" teas are now available.
Many of these are decaffeinated and organic versions
of the respective tea types. A selection of tea varieties
is perfect for afternoon tea or a simple tea party.
Research
with green tea in animals has shown it can reduce arthritis.
Green tea, already extolled for its cancer fighting ability,
may also protect against certain autoimmune disorders,
new research suggests. Green teas suppress the expression
of antigens made by the body, substances that can set off
an immune response. EGCG, a substance found in green
tea is known to suppress inflammation.
