Tea at five
Tea
is a drink that smells good, refreshes the mind and purifies the body,
but also strengthens good friendships. Tea is made by processing of tea
leaves of Chinese tea (Camellia sinensis lat.). The oldest record of
tea as a medicinal drink comes from 2000 years from China. In China
drinking tea was common already in the 4th and 5th century. About
300 years later the tea naturalized in Japan as well. First samples
pervaded into Europe in the 16th century by Arab merchants. The
first trade was carried out by Portuguese, Dutch and English, who
started to grow tea in colonies. Tea was brought to Russia from
Mongolia in 17th century. At that time it was used only as a
medicine. In Europe it becomes a common beverage only in the 18th
century. In the territory of Slovakia drinking tea joined an older
tradition of drinking herbal infusions, which have an important place
in traditional medicine. Real tea naturalized in our country in the
19th century, it was brought from Russia by traders from Turčian.
Tea was drunk everywhere. Drinking tea did not mean
just a regular sitting, it was an important social event. Guests were
invited especially in wintertime. Hussifs and guests prepared themselfs
properly for this event. To the tea it was also
served rich food - sweet snacks, savory sandwiches, salmon with
mayonnaise, cakes, cold creams, ice cream and fine wine.
The exhibition presents objects from the own collections of NMG, tea
sets, teapots, mugs and cups of tea, sugar, Samovars and other objects
associated with the serving of tea, made from enamel, porcelain, clay,
glass and brass.
