From the plantation to the tea-pot
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a moment in time where the journey of tea cultivation is beautifully depicted in black and white. The image, taken by an English Photographer in the 20th century, showcases the intricate process of bringing tea from the plantation all the way to our teapots.
This photograph was originally used as an illustration for Modern Grocery Display, a practical guide on window dressing and interior display edited by C L T Beeching around 1930. It serves as a visual representation of trade, design, agriculture, and shopping during that era.
The viewer is transported back in time to witness how tea was carefully cultivated on plantations before being packaged and sold at shops along bustling shopping streets. The attention to detail in this print highlights not only the beauty of agricultural practices but also emphasizes the importance of every step involved in bringing this beloved beverage into our homes.
As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the rich history behind our daily cup of tea and appreciate the laborious efforts put forth by farmers and workers alike. "From the plantation to the tea-pot" truly encapsulates a timeless journey that continues to connect us with nature's bounty.
