Antique pot for storing tea. It's great for short or long term storage. It can enhance the aroma and taste of White, Green, Black or Oolong tea. For Pu-Erh it can also work but not for long because the porcelain pot doesn't breathe so Pu-Erh will not like it too much. If you want to store tea for future generations you can fill it up to the very top and use a candle to wax and airtight the lid. This way tea can be stored for decades. Volume depends on the tea but traditionally this pot size is for one chinese kilo (600grams) of rolled oolong tea. Height is around 15cm
