130 by 35 cm of tea joy

Starting the day off, I scanned the shelves of my living room and came up with this cha xi below. A lightly oxidised Taiwanese oolong was what I missed after spending a week in Turkey drinking mostly black tea. So here it is, a Javanese pot, flowers from the garden, Florentine teaware, a Chinese gaiwan and a Japanese pewter pot for filtering water against a beige and green backdrop.
