No, I must admit that I don’t know much about Turkish tea. Would that be the birthplace of the Samovar? Either way, the image above is absolutely beautiful.

Samovar? I would say Russia.

And for the Turkish production, it was displayed here http://teaconomics.teatra.de/2011/05/27/the-classical-economics-part-i/

I don’t have my stats here but I will look at them as soon as possible.

Correct; Russia is the birthplace of the samovar. Turkey is the birthplace of the çaydanlık, or stacked kettle. The concept is the same in both of them, however. Tea on the top, hot water in the bottom, water the tea down to your tastes.

Turkey is also home to very elegent turkish teacup.

@supermoon10 do you have a picture of turkish teacups?

@Xavier I haven’t, but let me check google and wikipedia.

Unsure if the second link will work…

I once found a place near me that sold them, but they sold each cup individually, and each saucer was sold individually from its cup. The cups themselves were five dollars, the saucers three. It was quite ridiculous.

Thanks. I saw some in the past but I didn’t know they were Turkish.
