Beautiful time with Assam tea in Vietnamese bowl
BOWL:
Vietnamese porcelain bowl hand-painted with the motif of the mythical Phoenix bird. Based on the story "The Gathering of the Birds" by the Islamic mystic Attar. That's why I'm tempted to write with the motif of a hoopoe. Made in the 1990s.
I love searching all those oriental bazaars, all those Prague junk shops, but also forgotten treasures in all those Czech teahouses. Sometimes I'll definitely offer you something, like those Chinese plates from the Ming dynasty. But these bowls won't be it. :-)
I wrote about the Chinese plates in the post and it still applies. You can find it. :-)
I have four bowls that decorate my tea room. These bowls invite me to remember my early days of drinking tea. Back then, the world smelled of adventure and Asia held a great charm for me.
I drank red tea ASSAM LATUMONI:
"Latumoni is a small, family-run estate located in Tingkhong in Upper Assam. The small plantation measures approximately 2 acres and specializes in organically grown and hand-processed teas." "The teas are great and the idea as well. And we support it!" (more You ca read in klasek tea blog)
It is an honor and a joy for me to drink such beautiful tea from a family farm.
"Brownish-red infusion of a full, round, sweet fruity flavor with a strong component of pickled, slightly fermented stone fruits and a sweet, tannic aftertaste." Klasek Tea
I can write only yes, it si true. :-)
GAIWAN:
It's my new pottery project this style of teaware. I like this ivory color. I inspirate by czech designer Sutnar. He made very beautiful tea wares and coffe wares in 30s.
TEA is look very beautiful inside. Color of tea is not chNewanched. A tea smell good and taste like from porcelain. It excelent teaware for EVERY KIND OF TEA. From heicha to white tea.
