Hand made European teapot. Tea kettles have a real artistic, historical and cultural value throughout the world. Teapots have become great gift items. The first tea kettle originated in China in the 16th 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 extended life and good fortune, pomegranate for many, sound kids.

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

Now, tea drinking is making a resurgence in the U.S. Some state Americans are changing 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 sixties are also gaining adoption as other folks try to stay away from caffeine.

Today we relish an potpourri of herbal healthy teas. Many specialized "healthy" teas are now available. Many of these are decaffeinated and organic versions of the various tea types. A selection of tea varieties is ideal for afternoon tea or a simple tea party.
