This tea set says Japanese all over , the age old Japanese design is also timeless and would look equally at home in any type of setting. The drinking bowls (as opposed to cups) continue the theme of the Far East, although drinking your tea from a bowl is also seen in other Asian countries.  All this needs now is a nice tasty hot drink to go with it and you can use this for any type of tea, although I’m sure the perfectionists wouldn’t dare drink anything other than Japanese herbal tea out of it.  Be a Lucky Devil and get your hands on one of these, from Lucky Devil of course.
