Just a sea dragon gaiwan, here. My teaware is otherwise mostly either Japanese or handcrafted here in the US. But I drink primarily Chinese tea. Hm.

In my cup: Adagio's Fujian Baroque.

There's no such thing as too much tea ware, there's only such a thing as too little space. :lol: But if you are going to have a garage sale of sorts, than naturally I urge you to do so, if not to help expand my fleet... :twisted:

I have a bit of chinese teaware... :wink:

quick snap: it's windy outside and I don't want to go to work. Had a long evening last night, we went to a concert, but I got walloped by the worst headache I've had in a year, so didn't get to enjoy it as much as I'd like. I'm kind of draggin' (dragon) this morning.

Yep, I've got a couple of Chinese things...a gaiwan (I tend not to use this because I toast my fingers) and my little fishy gaibei (gaiwan with "handles" on the sides and a spout).

Today's teas so far Black Spiral this morning. Right now Kabusecha, sweet, yummy and green :mrgreen: Oh, yeah!

Cloudy, colder than it ought to be, and rainy...yep, there will be more tea tonight!

Enjoy,
Dreamer

Camellia Sinensis Baozhong oolong in my cup this afternoon.
Feels like it might rain some more tonight, I hope so.

1 Yixing and 1 Gaiwan so far. Have had my eye on a 2nd yixing from YS for some time now...Just can't justify quite yet. maybe x-mas...

Drank An Xi Iron Goddess from J-tea all day. It's got some legs.
