Journal Du Thé Chapter 4

ONLY 1 LEFT IN STOCK  Created and edited by Johanna Tagada Hoffbeck and Tilmann S. Wendelstein, Journal du Thé wonders what makes tea into this force which lets us slow down. It is said, that what makes a teapot a teapot is the empty space inside. Likewise this publication sets out to explore the space surrounding a cup of tea. With a curious and playful eye, Journal du Thé investigates the palette of cultures and feelings contained within tea practices and their power to overcome borders.
