The shallow cup with wide mouth is a perfect choice for summer tea drinking as it allows the beverage to cool rapidly. The vessel is designed to fit snugly into the palm of the hand. At the same time its well-balanced shape and a steady foot let you safely put the teacup on the table. The tea bowl was manufactured in Henan province famous for its ancient traditions of pottery. Tea is a wonderful beverage which is enjoyed all through the world and there are a lot of ceremonies in all parts of Asia for drinking and preparing the tea. This lovely tradition came to us from China where the tea was first used as a medicine. According to the legend, one of the ruler in the ancient China was looking for medical cures and got poisoned. And a drop of water from the tea tree saved him. So it is only prudent and just that Asian and especially Chinese ceramics and porcelain teaware is considered to be the first choice when it comes to taking a break from the mundane to drink a cup of Oolong or Rooibos. Or a couple. "Pacific tea" is based in Hong Kong and strictly follows old traditions of tea culture. Our company has been wholesaling tea and teaware for about 130 years all over the world. Among our customers there are Chinese communities and restaurants, tea clubs and embassies. We are proud of the tea tradition in China, and we are dreaming of showing people the difference between ordinary tea drinking and savouring each drop of the precious liquor in the best Asian style. 0
