The Yixing Clay Elephant Tea Pet is a traditional Chinese craft that tea enthusiasts cherish. Crafted from authentic Yixing clay, this tea pet adds a touch of elegance and fun to your tea table. Its unique design makes it a popular choice among tea lovers seeking a meaningful, decorative piece that complements their tea rituals.
To nurture your tea pet, regularly pour leftover tea liquid over it and gently wipe its surface with a tea brush. This process helps the clay absorb the tea’s aroma and color, gradually enhancing its glossy finish and fragrance over time. Remember to rinse only with water—avoid soap or dishwashing liquids—to preserve its natural beauty and scent. With consistent care, your Yixing clay elephant tea pet becomes more charming and aromatic, transforming into a treasured piece that reflects your dedication to tea appreciation.
Whether you’re seeking a distinctive gift for tea enthusiasts or a beautiful addition to your own collection, this tea pet offers both aesthetic appeal and cultural value. Its size—diameter 9 cm, width 6 cm, height 8 cm—makes it a perfect centerpiece on your tea tray, inviting sharing and conversation among friends. Crafted from high-quality Yixing clay, it’s a timeless piece that celebrates the art of tea.
