Hermes Tea Cup Carnets d’Equateur
At the heart of Hermes lies a legacy of craftsmanship dating back to the brand’s inception in 1837.
Established as a harness workshop in Paris, Hermes quickly gained a reputation for creating high-quality equestrian accessories.
The horse, a symbol of strength and grace, became an integral part of the brand’s identity.
The horse itself has long been a symbol of nobility, power, and freedom.
In the equestrian world, Hermes found inspiration for some of its most iconic designs.
The horse’s elegant form and dynamic movements have been immortalized in various Hermes creations, including the celebrated horse plates.
In this Hermès teacup too, Robert Dallet’s decor conveys a profound empathy for the harmonious and fabulous animal kingdom and manages to capture and preserve its soul. The usual exotic motif features a special embellishment: the inside of the teacup is gold-plated as is the saucer. The Hermès Carnet d’Équateur Gold Teacup is the perfect accessory for any refined table.

Hermes Tea Cup Mosaique Gold
The hypnotic and fascinating design of the Hermès Mosaïque au 24 teacup set is the brand trademark design and a tribute to the ochre and gold scheme of the famous floor in the original store at 24 Faubourg Saint-Honoré in Paris, birthplace of Hermès in 1926.
Sipping at these teacups is a unique experience, as soon as you put your lips on the thin porcelain you are transported to a world of beauty lit by the tiny and shiny golden tiles hand painted on the cups.
Hermes Tea Cup Mosaique Platinum
Hermès Mosaïque Platinum teacups feature the same pattern as Mosaïque au 24 Gold, only in matte grey tones, enhanced with platinum shades. The tiny platinum tiles are hand applied by skilled artisans. Definitely a more sober design, fit for elegant, distinguished people. Hold the teacup against the light and watch it became translucent.
Hermes Tea Cup A walk in the Garden
Twigs, leaves and grass shoot up through latticed and chequered patterns to create an imaginary garden on your table. A Walk in the Garden Teacup gift set by Hermès is a dreamlike stroll somewhere between figuration and abstraction, through colourful designs that look like they’ve been drawn directly onto the porcelain.
Hermes Tea Cup Bleus d’Ailleurs
Each piece from the Hermès Bleus d’Ailleurs collection is handcrafted and hand painted in Limoges, France. The blue and white decor on each cup is remarkable and amazingly perfect in every detail. The porcelain used comes from a very special white sand, only found in one region of France and finer than others and, therefore, is lightweight and almost translucent. Hold one of these feather light teacups against the light to enjoy a mesmerizing see-through effect.
Origin of tea ceremony
The tea ceremony is a ritual that originated in China. According to this ritual, tea is not just a simple drink, but something sacred and spiritual. This is why the tea ceremony must follow very precise rules and everything involved in tea making must comply with those rules.
In the Far East, the consumption of tea spread centuries earlier than in Europe. Allegedly, the tea ceremony was born in Buddhist monasteries where Buddhist monks drank tea to stay awake during the long hour of meditation and to reach their inner self. For Buddhist monks, the tea ceremony was a direct link to the spiritual dimension.
Tea Ritual as a Status Symbol
In the second half of the Seventeenth century, tea crossed the ocean to reach England. At the beginning, it was used as a medication, but then became very popular among all social classes as a drink. The only difference was that lower classes drank tea at evening meals, while upper classes enjoyed it served in fancy china cups and together with pastries and sandwiches, mainly around five in the afternoon. Thus the tea ritual became a status symbol.
Over the centuries, tea has lost the status of exclusive drink for upper classes to become a beverage enjoyed all over the world by anybody wishing to relax or share a moment with friends and family. Of course, the nicer the teacup, the nicer the moment…
Being aware of that, Hermès devotes special attention to creating luxury cups and teapots, always stylish and refined, in various designs and colours to satisfy everybody’s tastes.
