pretty pretty tea


These hand-sewn Blooming Teas were a discovery during a trip to Korea where a village monk was selling it and hand-sewing it one by one.

The leaves are either Green Tea or White Tea. Both are known for its potent anti-oxidant benefits. They help improve memory, reduce signs of aging, and have slimming properties (all qualities we need to embrace during the holidays!). Flower teas have always been a staple in the Asian tea ritual. It has been known to clear the skin and hydrate from the inside out which is very important during the party season. Besides being visually pleasing to the eye the health benefits are definitely an added bonus.
