Hand
made Euro teapot. Tea pots 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 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 significations,
for example, peach shape for long life and good luck,
pomegranate for many, hardy children.
Early
teapots, when brought to Europe, prompted
potters to produce new variations of tea pot culture.
Great Britain, being more keen on tea drinking than the rest
of Europe, made the teapot their own specialty.
Now,
tea drinking is making a resurgence in the U.S.A..
Some suppose Americans are shifting 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 sixties are also realising
acceptance as more folks try to refrain from caffeine.
Today
we enjoy an assortment of herbal teas.
Many specialized "healthy" teas are now available.
Many of these are decaffeinated and organic variations
of the respective tea types. A choice of tea varieties
is perfect 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 suggests. Green teas suppress 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.
