Hand
blown Euro teapot. Teapots have a
real artistic, historic and ethnic value throughout
the world. Teapots have become great gift items. The
1st teapot originated in China in the sixteenth Century.
The Japanese drank different teas, including green tea.
By the 18th Century the teapots made at Yixing, China,
were being produced in shapes which had symbolic significances,
for example, peach shape for extended life and good fortune,
pomegranate for many, hardy youngsters.
Early
teapots, when brought to Europe, prompted
potters to respond with 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 forte.
Now,
tea drinking is making a comeback in the United States.
Some say Americans are changing 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 additional people try to keep away from caffeine.
Today
we love an assortment of herbal teas.
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 afternoon tea or a simple tea party.
Research
with green tea in animals has shown it can repress arthritis.
Green tea, already extolled for its cancer fighting ability,
may also protect against certain autoimmune diseases,
new research suggests. Green teas inhibit the expression
of antigens made by the body, substances that can set off
an immune response. EGCG, a substance found in green
tea is known to suppress inflammation.
