 unique teapot
A
Hand blown glass tea pot is a unique and cost effective gift
idea for
showers, anniversaries, Mother's Day, wedding presents, or the holidays.
Every teapot is carefully hand finished by experienced
glass artisans.
Hand
blown Euro tea kettle. Teapots have a
real artistic, historic and cultural value all over
the world. Teapots have become great gift items. The
first tea pot was developed in China in the sixteenth Century.
The Japanese drank various teas, including green tea.
By the eighteenth Century the teapots manufactured at Yixing, China,
were being made in forms which had symbolic significances,
for example, peach shape for long life and good luck,
pomegranate for many, sound youngsters.
Early
teapots, when brought to Europe, inspired
potters to respond with new variations of tea pot culture.
Britain, being more keen on tea drinking than the remainder
of Europe, made the tea kettle their own specialization.
Currently,
tea drinking is making a resurgence in the U.S.A..
Some suppose Americans are changing over 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 replaced by the "power tea." Herbal
teas popularized during the 1960s are also gaining
acceptance as more folks try to avoid caffeine.
Today
we love an potpourri of healthy teas.
Many specialized "healthy" teas are now available.
Many of these are decaffeinated and organic variations
of the various tea types. A choice of tea varieties
is ideal for afternoon tea or a simple tea party.
Studies
with green tea in animals has shown it can subdue arthritis.
Green tea, already lauded for its cancer fighting ability,
may also protect against certain autoimmune disorders,
new research indicates. Green teas subdue the expression
of antigens made by the body, substances that can actuate
an immune response. EGCG, a substance found in green
tea is known to suppress inflammation.
