Folks:

Here is a funny-looking kitchen item that I put
together last night before going to bed.  I'm not
sure if one could actually make tea in it, though.

Doesn't matter if one can use it for tea. I like it anyways. Be careful not
to make the kitchen too crowded with items....but I'm a bit of a nihilist
sometimes.

Give us all a break, Aaron. You know that's a bong, and so do the rest of
us. Very well done picture of a bong, though.

The texture is superb! I like very much the glass-like varnishy finish.

Never smoked any tea in my life, but I'll bet the same couldn't be said for
anyone who looks at that and sees a teapot. <g>

i meant aaron, but... ah i forgot my point. well if you sing the old song
"I'm a little teapot short and stout. here is my handle. here is my spout."
then it passes that test for being a teapot. but then so do old style oil
cans.

What a clever idea! A bong filled with tea...  so when you get too stoned
and tip it over, you don't have to make excuses for the maid. Just a little
spilled tea...

I have. Well-dried, black tea. Takes a bit of cooking beforehand, to
wash the humidity away and carbonize it a little. It also takes a darn
good filter lest you want to grow a tea-bush inside your lungs.

Of course the effect is almost zilch and passes with the first breath
of fresh air you take after a pull (much like ethyl ether), but what
counts is that I can say I've smoked tea and most people can't :)

Yes, and much more tasteful than any I have seen.  I'm near Camden
market (in London), where they have hundreds of bong stalls for the
tourists, and they're ALL made of boring coloured glass.  And they don't
even have lights set up for nice photon{} effects... :)

Thanks Rick and Francisco for the nice comments.

I'm not sure that I have ever seen a bong before,
but I guess I know what one looks like now.  Wasn't
there an R&B song a couple years ago about this?
Let me see that bong ... Baby ... That bong b-bong
bong bong?

Something similar is called "botijo" in Spain.
Attached is an image with the most popular ones.

I don't believe you could, but you can fill it with tea and
keep it cold even in summer.

P.S.: Nice texture.
