Seramik Çaydanlıklar ve Türklerde Çay Kültürü
Ceramic Teapots and Tea Culture in Turks

Summary/Abstract: Tea and the culture related to tea were formed later in the history of the Turks than in various countries of the world. However, the traces of tea culture have been permanent. Because, together with the tea culture created by the Turks today, it has become an irreplaceable value in social life. Thus, tea quickly adapted to Turkish culture. As a result of this fusion, many intellectual innovations were presented in the process from the production of tea to the consumption of tea by the Turks. It is claimed that Turks have a serious contribution to the development of tea drinking culture. Accordingly, the thinness of the cups in which tea is drunk, the method of brewing tea and so on. Other cultures were enriched by the Turks. Such an interest in tea culture has led to the enrichment of ceramic teapots in terms of form. The teapot fulfills the function of drinking tea in a way; on the other hand, it is artistic and is a form produced for art, without the purpose of functionality.
