Amusing on their own, they work even better together in pairs or trios to provide a cheerful chorus delighted by the gift of warm tea. According to this bathing habit, they may take on a pleasing patina, and look perfectly at home with other clay ware.


What is a tea pet for?

Tea pets are very common in China: tea lovers usually place them on the gongfu cha tray and pour out leftover tea or rinse water over them.
