This is a refreshing change to the standard cylindrical tea pitcher, with a big body but a dainty base, we were happy to see that the extra weight at the bottom makes this piece su rprisingly sturdy without the fear of easily tipping. The tea pitcher originally came from Taiwan. The traditional gongfu tea practice in China involved pouring tea directly from the tea pot of gaiwan into the tea cups, or in some cases drinking directly from the teapot itself. This nerve innovation has become an irreplaceable part of the gongfu tea set up. For an absolutely essential piece of teaware, we were pleased with the ergonomics and the artistic shape of this tea pitcher, truly elevating it from its simple utility. This is another piece that has found heavy rotation on our tea table. Show more
