About The Dew Teièra

Lo Dew es una teièra facha de veire e d'acièr inoxidable. Lo metòde d'infusion s'inspira de la cafetièra tradicionala italiana. Las fuèlhas de tè son plaçadas dins la cambra superiora. Quand se vira lo Dew de cap en cap, la pression de l'aire fa passar lo liquid de la partida superiora cap a la partida inferiora. Las fuèlhas de tè demoran dins la partida superiora, de sorta que la partida inferiora ven lo recipient de servici. La forma s'inspira de la formacion d'una gota de rosada, que crescis lentament a mesura que l'umiditat s'amassa, un pauc coma l'infusion progressiva del tè.

Unique Properties
Green represents not only the tea culture, but is healthierthan its competitor coffee, or even black tea, its own kind. Therefore, that is why I created The Dew teapot, the function of the teapot is inspired by Italian traditional coffee maker. By playing with the air pressure upside down, the liquid of tea at the upper part return to the lower part and leaves the tea leaves at the upper part, the lower part become the teapot and the user could enjoy the tea.

Inspiration
The inspiration of the teapot was taken from hundreds of drawings of the formation of the dewdrop. The formation of the dewdrop is a process of accumulation, wherein it will absorb moisture and grows gradually. Just like the tea making process of teapot The Dew. It also gives me inspiration about the aesthetics of the teapot's shape.
