Tang Dynasty Tea Set - Tang and Song Dynasty Hall.

The "Tang Dynasty Tea Set" is on display at the Tea Set Museum in the Tang and Song Dynasty Hall, Guangshan County Cultural Center, Sima Guang East Road, Guangshan County, Xinyang City, Henan Province. As the Tang people paid attention to the spiritual enjoyment of tea drinking and focused on "tasting", the tea sets used by literati and officials became elegant artworks. Lu Yu's "The Classic of Tea" records 28 kinds of tea sets in the Tang Dynasty; wind stove, ash holder, broom, charcoal picker, fire clip, snake, cross bed, clip, paper bag, cover, cooked pot, grindstone, dust brush, sieve (box), ruler, water square, filter water bag, ladle, bamboo clip, salt pot, bowl, dustpan, note, wash square, dregs square, towel, tool row, and basket. These cover water boiling, tea grinding, and storage utensils. The picture above shows these tea sets.
