FAQs

How do I choose a teacup?

Before buying your tea cup, either for yourself or gifting, always make sure that it should not be made with any harmful chemicals. It should be non-porous and should not let your tea cool down quickly so you can enjoy the beverage properly. ExclusiveLane uses natural raw materials for all its products to ensure safety and sustainability. 

What type of mug is best for tea? 

Your choice of tea mug or tea cup depends on the occasion. Tea mugs are best used for daily use when you wish to enjoy your tea slowly and take your own time to finish the beverage. Teacups look appropriate in a more formal setting. 

What are the best tea sets?

Tea sets include tea cups, saucers and sometimes a matching tray as well. Ceramic and Terracotta tea sets are the best for usage as they have safe and sound characteristics. You can find a variety of ceramic and hand-painted Terracotta tea sets on Exclusive Lane. 

Is a ceramic cup ok for tea? 

Ceramic is a very sturdy material, and it can keep your tea warm for a long time. It can be moulded into desired shapes and painted with beautiful patterns, and hence ceramic cups are visually appealing as well. The best part about using ceramic tea cups is that they are lightweight and biodegradable. Hence, ceramic cups are not just ok but perfect for tea.
