Tea Pet Zisha Clay Monkey on Bodhi Leaf – Yixing Handmade

Zisha Clay Tea Pet – Monkey on Bodhi Leaf, Handmade Yixing

Peaceful, playful, and full of character. This handmade Yixing Zisha clay tea pet depicts a little monkey resting on a bodhi leaf — as if a baby sleeping soundly — its vivid, gentle form bringing warmth and a sense of calm to every tea session.

The Art of Nourishing a Tea Pet

Caring for a Zisha tea pet is a meditative practice, much like seasoning a Yixing clay teapot. After each tea session, pour leftover tea liquid over the tea pet and gently brush its surface to help the clay absorb the tea evenly. Over months to years, the surface develops a deeper gloss and a subtle, lingering tea fragrance — a living record of every cup shared.

• Rinse with clean water only — never use soap or dishwashing liquid
• The longer you nourish it, the more beautiful and aromatic it becomes
• Place on your tea tray and let it share in every tea session
