Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the color-changing Pi Xiu tea pet work?

A: The Pi Xiu tea pet is made with a special thermochromic resin that reacts to temperature changes. When you pour hot tea or water over it, the figurine shifts from one color to another, then gradually returns as it cools — creating a fun, interactive experience at every tea session.

Q: How do I "raise" or care for my tea pet?

A: In traditional Kung Fu tea culture, a tea pet is nurtured by regularly pouring leftover tea over it. Over time, this builds a rich patina and deepens the figurine's colors. Simply rinse with clean water occasionally — no soap needed — to keep it in great condition.

Q: Is this tea pet safe to use around food and beverages?

A: Yes. This Pi Xiu tea pet is made from eco-friendly, non-toxic resin materials and is safe for use on tea trays alongside your tea ware. It is recommended for users aged 14 and above.

Q: What size is the Pi Xiu tea pet, and where can it be displayed?

A: The tea pet measures 6 × 4.5 × 4 cm (approximately 2.4 × 1.8 × 1.6 inches), making it perfectly compact for a tea tray, tabletop, desk, shelf, or any display area in your home or office.
