PEBBLE

a line of mini vases for your tea space + ceremony

​

Tea master Sen no Rikyū taught that each tea ceremony must be filled with the spirit of ichi-go ichi-e (one chance, one encounter). In the practice of Cha Dao (Way of Tea), a fresh chaxi (tea stage) is prepared for each tea ceremony as every ceremony is a unique opportunity to connect with yourself, other people, and Nature.

 

Each miniature vase holds a few drops of water and a pinch of wildflower buds, sprig of herbs, or other decorative item to adorn your tea table and celebrate this present moment.

​

Heraclitus famously said, “You cannot step into the same river twice.” These miniature vases are river-stone shaped like the stones at the bottom of the changing river of life. They also represent the stone by stone building blocks of an international Zen + tea center in Miaoli, Taiwan.

 

A portion of the profits from these vases will be donated to building Light Meets Life, a permanent home for the Global Tea Hut tradition’s students and free tea courses.
