A green-blue celadon tea caddy for tea storage with an unglazed interior and a pair of blooming orchids hand-painted in deep blue on one side. It is the perfect companion to any tea setup. Styled after the celadon made by Longquan Kiln during the Song Dynasty (960–1279). A blue and white patterned cloth separates the warm brown clay lid from the base of the caddy.

The lid fits snugly to the base of the caddy and provides an airtight environment to store tea in. It is common practice to store only one type of tea in a caddy like this, as the unglazed interior will likely absorb the scent of whatever tea is stored in it over a long period of time.
