Quilled Tea Ceremony Greeting Card

Japanese tea ceremonies represent more than the simple act of drinking tea, but as a way for the host to connect with their guests, often times encompassing Zen spiritualism and inner peace. Japanese ceremonies are known as “chanoyu” which translates to “hot water for tea”.  Beyond the tea itself, Japanese chanoyu ceremonies are a way to emphasize Japanese virtues such as tranquility, respect, and peaceful aesthetics.
