blown European tea kettle. Teapots have a
real artistic, historical and ethnic value all over
the world. Teapots have become great gift items. The
first tea kettle originated in China in the 16th Century.
The Japanese enjoyed various teas, including green tea.
By the eighteenth Century the teapots made at Yixing, China,
were being produced in shapes which had symbolic meanings,
for example, peach shape for longer life and good fortune,
pomegranate for numerous, hardy youngsters.

teapots, when brought to Europe, prompted
potters to produce new variations of tea pot culture.

of Europe, made the teapot their own specialization.

tea drinking is making a resurgence in the America.

to "tea time." Excessive social drinking is

shrinking expense accounts, the "power lunch"
is being replaced by the "power tea." Herbal

adoption as more folks try to keep away from caffeine.

of the various tea types. A choice of tea varieties
is ideal for tea time or a simple tea party.
