Tea Pets

Tea pets are small ornaments that add interest to tea tasting. They are usually ceramic crafts made of purple sand or clay, and sometimes porcelain or wood. They are not only decorations, but also carry various beautiful meanings.

There are many types of tea pets with different shapes, including animals, mythological figures, plants and other forms. For example, cabbage tea pets mean that all kinds of wealth are coming, bat tea pets symbolize full blessings, monkey tea pets represent the seal of a marquis, crab tea pets mean that the world is rampant, the tortoise tea pets symbolize longevity and health, the toad tea pets are closely related to wealth, the Pixiu tea pets are mythical animals that attract wealth, the unicorn tea pets are regarded as a symbol of auspiciousness, the pig tea pets symbolize wealth and auspiciousness, and the carp tea pets are often related to joy and prosperity.

The materials of tea pets are also very diverse. Porcelain tea pets have good thermal insulation properties and can maintain the temperature of tea brewing; stone tea pets help to maintain the humidity of the teapot; wooden tea pets can absorb the odor of tea leaves.

In addition, the craftsmanship of tea pets is also worth paying attention to. There are two types: handmade and factory-made. Handmade tea pets are finely crafted, unique, and have collection value; while factory-made tea pets are cheaper, but the quality and craftsmanship may be slightly different.

In general, tea pets are not only decorations for tea tasting, but also people's yearning and wishes for a better life. Choosing a tea pet that suits you can make the tea tasting process more interesting and rich in cultural connotations.
