Name: Chai-Set
Designer: Mahsa Haddad
Location: München, Germany
Chai-Set is a minimal tea set designed by Mahsa Haddad. Tea drinking is an art-form that has been perfected over the centuries in Japan and China. The components of this set include a stainless steel tray – which is also used as a warming platform – a tea pot, tea strainer, cups, sugar bowls, milk jug, and ceramic holder for candles.
I enjoy tea – a lot. I think I’ve conditioned myself over the years where, if I am about to drink or even smell tea, I automatically start to wind down into a meditative state. The whole process is quite calming, and pretty extensive. Chai-Set would be a perfect solution to get into the environment and state as quickly as possible. This is like the Stanley toolbox of the tea ceremony.
