THE UPRIGHT FORM OF BAMBOO — THE CHARACTER OF A GENTLEMAN AT THE TEA TABLE
On its symbolism: Inspired by the bamboo plant – the plant that stands for the upright, unyielding spirit of the gentleman. Green through wind and rain, straight of stem even through fire, this tea tool set gives its owner a sense of steadiness and calm.
On the material: Quite unlike natural wood or bamboo, the set is made of premium Bakelite. This is a material that lasts, with a satisfying weight in the hand and solid feel, and it is utterly immune to woodworm and mould however humid and muggy the climate gets.
On the look: The deep, sober jet black of the holder is the perfect ground to set off the brilliant golden sheen of the brass tools. Bamboo branches and lotus blossoms are engraved in fine detail, for a beauty that is at once contrasting and harmoniously elegant.
On complete functionality: The set comprises the 5 essentials for a professional tea session:
Tea scoop: measures out just the right amount of tea.
Tongs: keep things hygienic when rinsing hot cups.
Tea knife: made for pu-erh and compressed tea cakes.
Care brush: keeps the surface of a zisha teapot glossy and beautiful.
Cup holder: serve a cup of tea gracefully without burning your fingers
