This handmade Yixing Clay tea ornaments, or tea pet evokes a unique sense of luxury and elegance with its elegant design. Tea lovers in China raise a tea pet by placing it on the tea tray during tea time and pouring out the tea over it. A tasteful and classic addition to any tea set. Measuring approximately 7cm x 8cm x 6cm, this delicate piece is a work of art. A tea pet is a small clay figure which is kept by some tea drinkers for good luck. They are usually made of "zisha" or Yixing clay, from the region near Yixing in Jiangsu province, China. Just like Yixing teapots made of the same clay, tea pets are unglazed, so that they are mostly monochromatic with a rough surface. If you pour on water you might get a surprise!
