made Euro tea pot. Tea kettles have a
real artistic, historic and ethnic 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 shapes which had symbolic significances,
for example, peach shape for longer life and good luck,
pomegranate for numerous, hardy youngsters.
Early
teapots, when imported to Europe, inspired
potters to produce new variations of tea pot culture.
Great Britain, being more keen on tea drinking than the rest
of Europe, made the tea pot their own specialism.
Now,
tea drinking is making a resurgence in the U.S.
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 budgets, the "power lunch"
is being substituted by the "power tea." Herbal
teas popularized during the 60s are also earning
adoption as more people try to refrain from caffeine.

Many specialized "healthy" teas are now available.
Many of these are decaffeinated and organic variations
of the different tea types. A selection of tea varieties
is ideal for tea time or a simple tea party.
