What Is Tea Pet?
A tea pet is a figurine placed on the tea table to accompany tea drinking. These small sculptures are usually made from ceramics or Yixing clay and come in various shapes such as small animals, buddha statues, or other auspicious symbols. When drinking tea, people often pour tea over the tea pets. This act symbolizes that the tea pets will absorb the essence of the tea, and over time they become more “spiritual” and alive.
