Tea Pet Kung Fu Little Monk

Yixing Zisha Clay Tea Pet Kung Fu Little Monk, Tea Lover's Pet Good Ceramic Gift to a Friend.

A tea pet, also known as a tea lover's pet, is a small clay figure which some tea drinkers keep for good luck. The show tea pet is a Yixing Zisha clay tea pet, the figure of a kung fu Monk. The tea pet is approx. 8.4cm wide and 6.9cm high.

The way tea lovers raise a tea pet is quite similar to how they maintain a Yixing Zisha clay teapot. It is a very time-consuming process. They often pour leftover tea over their tea pets and use a tea brush to wipe the surface of the tea pet to help it absorb the tea evenly. Tea pets should be only rinsed with water, without using soap or any dish-washing liquid, to ensure a progressive increase in the fragrance and color of the tea. After prolonged maintenance, over months or years, the tea pet will absorb the tea, and its appearance will become glossier along with the aroma of the tea.
