Hand
made European tea pot. Teapots have a
real artistic, historical and ethnic value throughout
the world. Teapots have become great gift items. The
first teapot was developed in China in the 16th Century.
The Japanese drank various teas, including green tea.
By the 18th Century the teapots made 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, sound children.
Early
teapots, when brought to Europe, prompted
potters to develop new variations of teapot culture.
Great Britain, being more keen on tea drinking than the rest
of Europe, made the tea pot their own specialization.
Presently,
tea drinking is making a resurgence in the U.S.A..
Some state Americans are shifting 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 1960s are also gaining
acceptance as other folks try to keep away from caffeine.
Today
we relish an assortment of herbal teas.
Many specialized "healthy" teas are now available.
Many of these are decaffeinated and organic versions
of the different tea types. A selection of tea varieties
is ideal for tea time or a simple tea party.
Studies

Green tea, already extolled for its cancer fighting ability,
may also protect against certain autoimmune diseases,
new research suggests. Green teas inhibit the expression
of antigens made by the body, substances that can touch off
an immune response. EGCG, a substance found in green
tea is known to suppress inflammation.
