Hand made Euro tea kettle. Teapots have a real artistic, historical and cultural value all over the world. Teapots have become great gift items. The 1st tea pot originated in China in the sixteenth Century. The Japanese drank assorted teas, including green tea. By the eighteenth Century the teapots manufactured at Yixing, China, were being produced in shapes which had symbolic meanings, for example, peach shape for long life and good luck, pomegranate for many, hardy kids.

Early teapots, when brought to Europe, prompted potters to produce new variations of tea pot culture. Britain, being more keen on tea drinking than the remainder of Europe, made the tea pot their own forte.

Now, tea drinking is making a comeback in the U.S.A.. Some state Americans are switching over from "happy hour" to "tea time." Excessive social drinking is increasingly frowned upon and, with executives facing shrinking expense accounts, the "power lunch" is being substituted by the "power tea." Herbal teas popularized during the 60s are also realising acceptance as other folks try to refrain from caffeine.

Today we savor an potpourri of gourmet teas. Many specialized "healthy" teas are now available. Many of these are decaffeinated and organic versions of the different tea types. A choice of tea varieties is perfect for tea time 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 diseases, new research implies.
