Characteristics of lacquer tea sets and bamboo tea sets

Lacquer tea sets began in the Qing Dynasty and were mainly produced in Fuzhou, Fujian. The tea sets produced in Fuzhou are colorful, including varieties of "Balofing Glitter", "Gold Satin", "Glazed Gold", "Antique Porcelain", "Carved Fill", "High Carving" and "Inlaid Silver".

It is pollution-free and harmless to the human body. Therefore, it has been welcomed by tea people since ancient times. However, the disadvantage is that it cannot be used for a long time, it cannot be preserved for a long time, and it loses the value of cultural relics. It was only in the Qing Dynasty that a bamboo woven tea set appeared in Sichuan. It is both a handicraft and a practical value. The main varieties are teacups, teacups, saucers, teapots, tea trays, and so on. They are mostly made in sets.

The ribs are made of soft bamboo filaments of coarse and fine hair and are roasted, colored, smoothed and evenly processed. , dyeing, and then according to the shape and size of the inner shape of the tea set, weaving and fitting, so that it becomes a tea set as a whole. This kind of tea set not only has a harmonious tone, but also has a beautiful appearance. It can also protect the inner tube and reduce the damage.
