Persian Tea Set
An Persian tea set brings together the essential items for serving and drinking tea in traditional Persian culture. A complete set usually includes a teapot, a sugar bowl, a milk jug, and small glasses or cups for tea. Artisans often make the teapot from metals such as brass or copper and decorate it with intricate designs. The glasses or cups often feature traditional Persian patterns and colors, adding elegance to every tea ceremony.
Persian tea culture plays an important role in Persian hospitality. Families serve tea to guests as a sign of respect and welcome. People often brew the tea with saffron, cardamom, or other spices to give it a distinctive flavor. Beyond hospitality, families also drink tea in the afternoon and evening as a way to relax, connect, and socialize.
A Persian tea set can also feature Ghalamzani craftsmanship, a traditional art form from Gilan province in Persian. This intricate hand-engraving technique turns every tea set into a piece of cultural heritage, combining function with artistic beauty.
