Benjarong Tea Set -3 8" teapots, serving plate, and serving cups. 

The name "Benjarong" is derived from the Thai words "Benja" (five) and "rong" (color). Traditional Benjarong porcelain is characterized by its use of five colors – black, white, green, yellow, and red – which are often arranged in intricate patterns and designs. These designs often feature elements of Thai culture and mythology, such as the Garuda, a bird-like creature from Hindu and Buddhist mythology. Benjarong porcelain was initially produced exclusively for the royal court and was used to create ornate dishes, vases, and other decorative objects. The porcelain was often embellished with gold or silver leaf, making it even more luxurious and valuable. It was also used as a diplomatic gift to foreign dignitaries, further cementing its status as a Thai culture and refinement symbol.
