What Is A Tea Pet?
Tea pets are beloved traditional decorative accents for Chinese tea ceremonies, kept on your tea tray and ‘nurtured’ with regular pours of tea. Over time, they absorb tea aroma and develop a warm, glossy patina that makes each tea pet one-of-a-kind. This interactive color changing ox tea pet set adds playful charm and meaningful symbolism to any tea ritual.
