yixing teapot
A
Hand blown glass teapot is a unique and affordable gift
idea for
housewarming, anniversaries, Mother's Day, wedding presents, or the holidays.
Every tea kettle is carefully hand finished by experienced
glass artisans.
Hand
blown Euro teapot. Tea kettles have a
real artistic, historical and ethnic value throughout
the world. Teapots have become great gift items. The
1st tea pot was developed in China in the 16th Century.
The Japanese drank assorted teas, including green tea.
By the 18th Century the teapots manufactured at Yixing, China,
were being made in forms which had symbolic significations,
for example, peach shape for long life and good luck,
pomegranate for many, healthy children.
Early
teapots, when imported to Europe, inspired
potters to develop new variations of tea pot culture.
Britain, being more keen on tea drinking than the remainder
of Europe, made the tea pot their own forte.
Presently,
tea drinking is making a comeback in the U.S.A..
Some suppose Americans are switching 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 replaced by the "power tea." Herbal
teas popularized during the 60s are also earning
acceptance as additional people try to avoid caffeine.
Today
we love an potpourri of herbal teas.
Many specialized "healthy" teas are now available.
Many of these are decaffeinated and organic versions
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 extolled for its cancer fighting ability,
may also protect against certain autoimmune disorders,
new research implies. Green teas subdue the expression
of antigens made by the body, substances that can trigger
an immune response. EGCG, a substance found in green
tea is known to suppress inflammation.
