EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene of tea packing in India during the 1910s. The Indian Tea Association image showcases a group of dedicated packers meticulously filling and levelling freshly plucked tea leaves into wooden crates and baskets. The packers, dressed in traditional Indian attire, work diligently, their focus unwavering as they ensure the tea is packed to perfection. The tea industry in India had been thriving since the mid-19th century, and by the 1910s, it had become a significant economic force. The freshness and quality of the tea were paramount, and the packing process was crucial to maintaining these essential attributes. The wooden crates and baskets, piled high and neatly arranged, are ready to be filled with the fragrant tea leaves. The packers use their hands to scoop the leaves into the containers, taking care to fill them evenly and compactly. Once filled, the crates and baskets are carefully levelled to ensure an even distribution of tea, preserving its freshness and preventing damage during transportation. The employees work in unison, their movements synchronized, creating a rhythmic and harmonious atmosphere. The scene is a testament to the rich history and tradition of tea production in India, a process that continues to captivate and inspire us today. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing us with a unique insight into the intricacies of tea packing during the early 20th century. The dedication and craftsmanship of the packers are evident, and their hard work ensured that the finest Indian tea reached consumers around the world, ready to be brewed and enjoyed.
