One of the reasons I got into tea was so I could say “equipage” when referring to cups, mugs, kettles, pots, spoons, etc. Now that’s ATTITUDE.

There’s some odd equipage out there. Do you have odd equipage? Then seek medical attention. Meanwhile, here’s some of the oddest equipage I own.

One day, I will roam the earth in an Airstream trailer, stopping to sip tea under the awning. Until then, I will enjoy tea from this pot I received as a birthday gift. Schweet. That’s Kory trying to mug into the shot.

Who doesn’t love drinking tea from The Dark Lord of the Steep? I use this mug for dark brews only. If it’s a really good cuppa, I say “Impressive. Most impressive.” Seriously, I do.

This double-walled titanium mug from Japan is so light you think it will blow away in the wind. The double wall keeps my hands cool even when the brew is raging hot. Fantastic! I love the simplicity of the design.

What kind of tea did they drink in the sunken city of R’lyeh? No one knows. This is my Sunday morning mug. Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn!

For more cool, interesting, or just plain odd equipage, then check out the fantastic Cha Cha Tea Tea blog.
