The tea tray has been a defining element of Chinese tea culture since the Qing Dynasty and is an integral part of the Gongfu Cha tea ceremony. It combines important functions of drainage, practicality, aesthetics, and cultural symbolism. Its use allows for the high-level enjoyment of the art of tea, while maintaining cleanliness and order during the ceremony. This tool not only assists in the preparation and serving of tea but also contributes to enhancing the tea-drinking experience and preserving Chinese cultural heritage. The most important function of the tea tray is to catch and drain water. During the tea ceremony, a lot of water is often used to rinse tea leaves and teapots and warm the cups. The drain holes at the bottom of the tea tray or the built-in water tank help remove excess water, keeping the table and tea utensils clean.
