The Dragon Tea Figurine in Yixing Clay is a charming Yixing clay figurine, ideal for enhancing your traditional tea ceremony. Figurines in the Chinese tea ceremony If you have ever attended the Chinese Gongfu Cha tea ceremony, you will certainly have noticed that most tea trays (Cheban) are accompanied by a small clay statuette known as “茶宠” (tea pet). These Yixing clay artworks are constantly wetted during the tea ceremony, bringing wishes of good fortune and prosperity. In China, tea figurines are treated with great respect and are sometimes regarded like pets. Although they are simply decorative objects for the tea tray, in many Chinese families they have deep symbolic meanings. For example, a dragon figurine may represent celestial energy and symbolise a connection with the Tao, or be considered a talisman given by a deceased elder, conveying wisdom and protection to the family. “Nourishing” your tea figurine You can “nourish” your tea figurine by pouring over it the hot water used to warm the tea utensils before drinking, or the water used to rinse the tea leaves at the beginning of the ceremony. Over time, the clay will absorb the tea’s aromas and scents, developing a distinctive colour patina. Tea figurines are available in a variety of shapes and sizes, from small to large, and may depict animals, people, insects or mythical creatures, with designs ranging from simple to sophisticated. Using Chinese tea figurines in meditation Some studies have shown that focusing on an object during meditation can cause the human brain to operate at a frequency similar to that of monks and mystics. This state of consciousness offers the opportunity to receive insights or answers to persistent questions, known as “help from above” or “advice from the ancestors”. During the tea ceremony, the relaxation induced by the tea itself and the presence of the figurines help focus attention and facilitate access to this meditative state.
