The Art of Tea Pets
Tea pets are small figurines traditionally placed on a gongfu tea tray and "nourished" with tea over time — they absorb the tea's colour and fragrance, slowly developing a unique character that reflects the care of their owner. The cricket, symbolic of good fortune and vitality in Chinese culture, makes this piece especially meaningful as a tea companion or standalone decorative accent.
Made in Mainland China.
