Bamboo Cha He Tea Holder – Hand-Carved Bamboo Root

In the art of gongfu tea, every detail matters — including how you present your tea leaves. The cha he (tea holder) is a traditional Chinese tea utensil used to display dry tea for guests before brewing, allowing everyone to appreciate the color, shape, and aroma of the leaves. This piece is hand-carved from natural bamboo root, making each one a unique work of art that is as beautiful as it is functional.

How to Use a Cha He

1. Scoop dry tea leaves from the tea caddy into the cha he.
2. Present to guests to admire the tea’s color, shape, and fragrance.
3. Hold with the left thumb and four fingers supporting the sides; right hand holds the bottom.
4. Gently tip the leaves into the teapot to begin brewing. The cha he can also be used to lightly crush leaves to increase brew concentration.
5. Avoid touching the inner gap area when handling to maintain hygiene.
