Silver tea sets are expensive and are used on formal occasions. A silver tea set consists of a teapot teacups and saucers, a sugar bowl, a creamer or jug, a kettle, a splash bowl, a tea strainer, a serving tray and a sugar spoon or tong.

Pottery Tea sets:
Tea sets can be easily customized to lend it an exclusive look, different from other ordinary ones. Pottery tea pots can be variously made in the shape of a toaster, bell, sinks or other such items. Pottery has an ethnic feel to it. The term “Pottery” is an all-encompassing term that is generally used to mean all the products that the potter produces by using his art. Porcelain or china-ware can be either hard-paste or soft-paste. Soft-paste which was earlier made of a little amount of clay was difficult to shape on the potter's wheel. Later it was modified to make it more plastic and hence easy to shape. These pastes contain more clay and are now referred to as bodies or electric porcelain. Jolleying and turning are methods used to shape them. It is known as "soft" as it cannot stay strong at higher temperatures in comparison to hard-paste porcelain. Soft-paste is fired at around 1100 degrees Celsius for the frit based compositions and 1200 to 1250 degree Celsius for the feldspathic compositions. The low temperatures produce certain advantages. It allows the artists to use a wider palette of colors for decoration. It reduces fuel consumption. The soft-paste porcelain is more granular and is easier to decorate while enameling the outer surface. Hard-paste formulations are more resilient and do not experience pyroplastic deformation. Experiments carried out at Rouen produced the earliest soft-paste in France around 1673, when a patent was given to Louis Poterat. Then Louis Henry, Duc de Bourbon set up a soft-paste factory in Chantilly in 1730. In 1750 a soft-paste factory was started at Mennecy by François Barbin.


Toleware Tea set:
The teapot and other pieces of tea-ware are made of varnished tinplate and pewter. The name has originated from the French name tôle peinte. Tea sets are made by dipping the tinplate sheets of iron or steel in molten tin or pewter. Pewter is an alloy of tin and copper. The tea set is then varnished to give it a glossy look.

Plastic Tea set:
They are usually used by children to play. A plastic tea set contains a teapot, teacups and saucers, a sugar bowl, a creamer or jug, a kettle, a splash bowl and a tea strainer. A properly processed plastic tea set can also be used to drink or serve tea. They come in a wide range of colors ranging from pink, blue, green, red etc.
