Summary edit

Description
English: Tea Case. Tang Dynasty, Famen Si

The ground tea would have been kept in this drawered case, and then measured out into a decanter (like the turtle-shaped holder nearby in the museum) for use in the tea service. The case contains an internal sieve to regulate the size of the particles of tea.

This object is one of a set from an imperial tea-service. Its inclusion in the Famen Si crypt is early evidence for the importance of tea in China.
