品茶之人都知,新鲜的茶叶即冲泡时香气清新、味道醇厚,给人以新的感受。其中关键在于保存。
因为茶叶吸附性强,香气易散失,如果保存不当,会吸水变质或异味侵袭,从而造成汤色暗沉、香味糟粕的浪费。古代便有专门贮存器皿,它是审美与实用价值相结合的文化用品。
茶仓,或称为茶罐,是储存器皿,其材质优缺点也适合搭配不同种类的茶叶。如果说“品茶之地”是“茶空间”,那么安置者亦是另一种“空间”?
在此承载着自然与宇宙,一开盖,那一刻,就能闻到雨后的山林和草木。若保存得当,每一次开启每一次闻香,每一次注水,都能释放出不同的真味和惊喜。
泡制如同花朵绽放,不久但孕育长久,保存便是最后一个孕育环节。“爱护它,它将回报你。”从冲泡开始,它展现其最精华,最丰富生命力。
实用之美
这等于说,在制作器皿时,全心全意为着好用的考虑,用手一摸就知是否好用,如小圆柱形罐子,为何如此设计?
因为倒酒时轻巧转动,让动作连续优雅自如,也影响了你的肢体姿态,再次影响整个活动,使整个场景流畅自然。
仅需四个元素——tea, utensils, water and the human—brewing a perfect cup of tea is simply about finding balance among them. The teaware nurtures the tea, which in turn nourishes us. All things in this world are interconnected.
The beauty of tea lies perhaps in its unpredictable charm that forever beckons us to explore and patiently await. There's no taste quite like it—the unpalatable becomes palatable.
Observation Beauty
Wooden teawares due to their malleability can be carved into various forms. Their aesthetic appeal is diverse yet valuable due to handmade craftsmanship and artisanal differences. High-end wood material teaware coupled with masterful carving makes for a pricey market.
Like an ornament, wooden teawares develop patina over time through use and handling, adding more allure particularly when made from expensive woods like sandalwood.
Through natural dyes or paints, these wooden storage containers can display vibrant colors and designs similar to traditional lacquerware enhancing our table settings with a picturesque view.
They possess high visual appeal as well.
Attitude determines lifestyle quality; even small decorations can add brilliance to life—a small teaware container can store aromatic flavors!
