A tea pet (tea five) is a small ceramic figurine that tea lovers keep for good luck on a coffee table during a tea ceremony. Some tea masters believe that when we adopt a tea pet, it has no soul. Pouring tea (which has a soul), we also give a soul to our little pet.

For pouring, i.e. feeding the pet, any liquid from the ceremony can be used: water used to originally heat the cups, liquid from the first rinsing of the leaves or tea residues from each soaking. It is necessary to evenly pour the liquid over the figurine. Uneven application will result in a spotted appearance. After it dries, it can be touched freely.

Note: This tea pet is made of porous white Yixing clay and can therefore absorb the color of the tea. To maintain the white color, we recommend that you do not rinse it or soak it in tea.

Each figurine may differ slightly, as it is handmade.

It comes in a decorative box.
