This month, Dragon-Gate.com celebrates the ancient Chinese (and Japanese) art of tea drinking!

Spanning centuries, a tea ceremony is an exercise in etiquette, restraint and utter civility. Of course, a more cozy culture has also been cultivated throughout the ages whereby friends and family members sit together, sip on tiny cups of fragrant hot (unsweetened!) tea and enjoying each other's company.

Below is our new selection of beautifully rendered tea sets. They are not only decorative - by any means, you may include these lovely pieces into your teatime events everyday if you like!

These pieces are created for extended wear and its porcelain make ensure beauty and longevity for the years to come. Who knows - you may end up with a priceless heirloom item to pass on to your children's children in the future!

These items are hardy yet delicate - they must be washed by hand with regular detergent.
