Description

A beautiful, classic, Japanese tea set with a bamboo-handled teapot and 4 cups. The storks decorating the sides symbolize longevity and good luck in Japan because they were thought to have a life span of a thousand years. They are also monogamous, therefore, many items with storks on them are used for wedding presents to bless the marriage. Do you have any soon-to-be newlyweds you need a present for?
