The Zodiac Rabbit tea figure in glazed Yixing clay with Ru Yao porcelain is a beautiful figure made of Yixing clay, used in the traditional tea ceremony. The figures in the tea ceremony: if you have witnessed the Chinese tea ceremony Gunfu Cha, in China, you have probably noticed that almost all tea trays (Cheban) have a clay figurine – “茶宠” (tea pet). This is a small piece of Yixing clay art, which is constantly moistened during the tea ceremony as a wish for good luck and fortune. In China, tea figures are revered on par with pets, even though they are essentially small objects made to decorate the tea tray. In some Chinese families, the dragon figurine may signify the energy of heaven and symbolize a connection with the Tao god, and in another family a talisman given by a deceased grandfather, which reminds them and imparts the family's wisdom. Tea figures are thus always present and have specific meanings. “Feeding” (wetting) your tea pet: you can wet your tea figurine with the hot water you used to warm the tea utensils before drinking it or you can use the water with which you washed the tea leaves at the beginning of the ceremony. Over time, the figurine will absorb the aroma and scent of the tea, and a color difference will be noticeable in the clay. Tea pets are many and varied, and can be small, medium, or very large. They are generally very simple, but with a sophisticated design. They can be animals, people, beetles, or even mythical creatures. Using Chinese tea figures in meditation: some scientists have shown that by focusing on an object and relaxing, the human brain begins to work at a different frequency, similar in vibration to the frequency of monks and saints. In such a state of consciousness, a person starts from a stereotypical thought and has the opportunity to tune in to the necessary waves to obtain an answer to a long-standing question of interest. This effect is called “help from above” or “advice from ancestors.” During the consumption of tea, it is easier to reach this state because tea alleviates nervous and physical tensions, and tea figures help to set and focus attention.
