We were honoured to be a part of the creation of this beautiful book Tea, Remembering The Essence of Life by Christina-Jade Brunel in collaboration with Laura Wencker, and are thrilled to have some copies available here and also in our showroom, flower bird wind moon.

“Weaved from a combination of poetic & meditative writings, elemental photography, and artistic imagery, this creative and mindfully curated book carries the essence of Cha Dao 茶道, the Way of Tea.

Infused with the wisdom of Chinese philosophy, Tea, Remembering The Essence of Life, is an experiential and intimate exploration of the five elements; Water, Wood, Fire, Earth & Metal.

This book offers the occasion to meditate with the dance of water and leaves, and the delicate balance between nature and culture”.

Tea, Remembering The Essence of Life invites you to explore the Way of Nature, Cha 茶 (tea), and meditation, with the story of tea, its essence & practice, guidance on tea rituals, beautiful meditations and poems to support your daily practice and stunning immersive photography.

The book was made using recycled paper and materials from sustainably managed forests in France, where the book was printed. The beautiful rich earthy cover was hand dyed with pu’er tea giving it a naturally patinated wabi sabi look.
