Colour Changing Tea Pet
Tea pets are cute little ceramic or resin critters that sit beside you as you enjoy a cup of tea. The idea is that when you wash the leaves with hot water to open them up and “wake up” the flavour, instead of wasting the tea, you “feed” it to the tea pet. They’re little talismans that bring you peace and joy during tea ceremonies. This tea pet is a colour-changing toad, which is often referred to as Chan Chu, the “money toad.” It represents a popular Feng Shui charm for prosperity. Along with that, it carries two strings of copper coins on its back, supposedly enhancing the wealth of the tea pet owner. Why not give a friend a little wealth-generating talisman?
