The meditating tiger brings peace and a zen atmosphere to every tea ceremony. The tiger is dressed in traditional Chinese clothing and sits in a lotus pose. It is entirely handcrafted from Duan Ni clay and crafted with exceptional detail.

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.

Each figurine may differ slightly, as it is handmade.

It comes in a decorative box.
