Rhinoceros Tea Pet

A beloved part of Chinese tea ceremony, a tea pet is a small ceramic companion placed on a tea tray and rinsed with tea during each steeping session. Over time, the clay develops a natural aroma and patina, making every tea pet uniquely personal.

Handcrafted from green zisha Yixing clay and measuring 2.75 x 2.1 inches, this rhinoceros represents peace, gentleness and strength. Its natural green color brings a calm, grounding presence to your tea ritual.

Each tea pet arrives nestled in a velvet-lined box secured with a brass latch, making it a thoughtful gift for tea lovers.
