| Summary: | The research paper performs a comparative analysis of the ceramic tea sets to study their design, colour, and shape evolution through the differing tea-drinking cultures and practices of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The paper performed a comparative analysis of the ceramic tea sets from both Ming and Qing dynasties to analyse the cultural influence of tea production, tea drinking, and tea trade of the two periods on the make and designs of the ceramic tea sets from the periods and the transformation in their morphological attributes through the influence of international trade during the periods. The paper finds striking contrasts in the designs of the Min g and Qing dynasties and notes how despite these differences, the ceramic teapots continue to build on the similar aspect of connection with nature and thus influence the modern tea drinking and tea ware patterns. © 2024, Creative Publishing House.
