Furniture measured to the centimetre a gōngfu chá session actually needs
Setting up a dedicated chá-shì in a 6–12 m² room at home? Tea.furniture curates purpose-built pieces for rooms where tea is prepared, shared, rinsed and stored — low floor tables sized for kneeling or cross-legged service, ergonomic seating, gàiwǎn storage and side stands, each specified for reach, heat, drainage and material care before you buy.

Rooms by use
Build the room around water, reach, rest
This is not a catalogue of occasional tables. Each category starts with the movements of brewing — pour, rinse, pass, display, return to silence.
Low tables for gōngfu chá
Water-grooved surfaces and floor-height tables built for the deliberate rhythm of gōngfu chá — drainage, warmth and hand-finished height where breath meets leaf.
Floor seating for long sessions
Hand-woven mats, cushions and low stools that keep hips, spine and kettle-hand steady across long steeping rounds.
Side tables and stands
Kettle stands, water carafe stands and small surfaces that keep the workbench uncluttered while a session moves.
Storage and display
Cedar and bamboo shelving that lets wrapped pǔ’ěr cakes and collected ware breathe, without turning the tea room into a showroom.
Room screens and dividers
Folding screens and low dividers in paper and wood that filter light and claim a quiet edge of a shared room for tea.
Tea-room lighting
Pendant, table and floor lamps calibrated to warm, dimmable colour temperatures that never fracture attention or flatten the liquor.
First collection
Objects selected for gōngfu service
Prices are full piece prices; freight and installation are itemized after address confirmation. Every listing names material, origin and care before you order.
Expert review
Tea masters shape the working dimensions
Teamotea specialists test reach, posture, aroma handling and cleanup before a piece enters the edit.

“For Mí Lán Xiāng (蜜兰香), the table cannot trap fragrance in damp wood. I look for fast runoff, a dry cup rail and space for a tall fairness pitcher.”

Restaurant and tea house service flow
“A guest should never watch the host hunt for a cloth. Seating height, drain access and side storage matter as much as the timber.”
Constellation notes
The room connects to the whole practice
Furniture works best when ware, education and events agree on the same pace.
