Description
This square tea tray is both functional and elegant. In China, tea is commonly prepared over a tray that allows water to drain away from the surface. This is because hot water is used to warm the implements and then is discarded; also, with fermented or aged teas, hot water is used for an initial washing of the leaves and likewise discarded. The tray collects the discarded water so that you don't need to set up in proximity to a sink with a drain. This square tea tray has a slotted bamboo cover and a plastic base that holds enough water for a traditional tea brewing session. Even if not used to hold discarded water, the tray still makes striking and tasteful serving platform. The tray is portable, and perfect for two to four people, enough for family or friends.
