Tea is ingrained in Moroccan culture, and this set of six 8-ounce tea glasses with intricate decorative etching offers an exquisite link to it. The fnar glasses—named after an antique style of oil lamp—are intended to serve traditional Moroccan tea, which usually is a mixture of Chinese green tea, mint and sugar. But the intricate etching also make them decorative enough to be used as candle holders or in centerpieces. Casablanca Market, one of our favorite producers of Moroccan cookware, condiments and spices, is an eco-conscious company, using recyclable materials and employing sustainable practices whenever possible. And they strive to provide financial security for the craftspeople who create their wares, helping to preserve and secure their artistic and culinary heritage.
It’s traditionally a man’s job to prepare it in front of guests and then pour it from a long-spouted carafe from a height of at least 12 inches. That’s enough agitation for the tea to foam, a sign it’s finished brewing. If there’s no foam, it’s returned to the pot to steep a bit longer.
