Hand
made Euro teapot. Tea pots have a
real artistic, historic and cultural value all over
the world. Teapots have become great gift items. The
1st tea pot originated in China in the 16th Century.
The Japanese drank different teas, including green tea.
By the eighteenth Century the teapots made 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, hardy children.
Early
teapots, when brought to Europe, inspired
potters to produce new variations of teapot culture.
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 America.
Some say Americans are changing 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 people try to avoid 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 respective tea types. A choice of tea varieties
is ideal for afternoon tea or a simple tea party.
