Porcelain Teaware

Porcelain is a traditional, beautiful, and highly functional material, with a unique set of properties that make it ideal for tea preparation. Porcelain offers the same flavor-neutral characteristics as glass, but with increased durability. In addition, porcelain offers better heat retention, plus a white background so you can appreciate the true color of your tea.
