Handmade Yixing Zisha Clay Tea Pet Brave Troop newest FJ1024

Material: Yixing Zisha clay
Dimensions: 92x40x65mm
Origin: China
Description: The tea pet is a small clay figurine that is placed on your tea table, joining you for some tea. Just like Yixing teapots newest made of the same clay, tea pets are unglazed and are mostly monochromatic with a rough surface, that is better to absorb the tea.

A tea pet is typically placed on a tea tray and has tea poured over it during tea time. Due to the tea pet's unglazed nature, the figurine absorbs some of the tea, resulting in the tea pet changing color over time, as well as building up a tea scent.
