Hi good night! I would really like to know if this tea set is worth purchasing, and is the paint lead based or not? Thanks a million.

I don't know about the paint but Yes..it is a really nice ceramic set that can be packed up in the pretty sturdy picnic basket. 6 months in and my 6 yr old has only broken 1 piece and has all the rest. She still loves it.

Hi Jose, I'm sorry as the tea set was a gift and i can no longer accurately answer regarding the lead paint however as far as the worth....for me what I saw in a little girls eyes at Christmas YES but if I were making an economic decision at any other time of the year, no I would not buy this set. It is cute but value wise not worth it, there are better quality sets out there.

It is cute but very small sized okay for small hands. I use tea towels to keep the tea set from moving in the basket so the girls can carry. I'm not sure about the paint but I don't think it is lead based.

It is a pretty set in a very nice basket. I was very pleased with the set for the money and my Granddaughter loves playing with it. I do not know if the paint has lead or not.

Nice review! Just a comment about the hot cocoa thing... there are other varieties available, a very good one from Ghirardelli (who ARE known for the chocolate). So, I wouldn't say it's a drawback. There are also the same assortment of non-latte teas available.

Gee, I don't really know. I gave it as a gift so I no longer have the packaging or the product. I don't believe using lead-based paint is legal any more at least here in the US but I don't recall where this product was made or shipped from. Have you tried to contact the seller? They would surely have that kind of information. Good luck. KLM

I bought it and its beautiful! There is no paperwork that tells you one way or the other if there's led in the paint. There is some writing on the outside of the package but it's in Chinese, I think it may just tell the item and color as it comes in more than one color, so they know whT package to grab to ship. But I think it's much too delicate to use everyday . I bought it for a girlfriend who collects tea cups to display .

Robin, as per the specifications on Amazon ..but I think I understand you mean perceptionally. I bought the whole set (5 in total) to use on an extremely formal dinner table, where each dragon was the centerpiece, surrounded by its 'nest' of flowers. I do have some photos if you would like to have a look at them, maybe you will get an idea as to size. If in order with you, forward your e-mail address to me, and I will see that you get them. Hope that answers your question in some part......but all I can say really - it is an excellent buy. I like all 5, but this one (especially its colouring), is superb. My second favourite was the purple one. Regards tania

Im on the search for a lead free slow cooker. I called the company and they claim the ceramic pot, and enamel/glaze on the pot are lead free. Ive also read blogs and comments of other women calling and getting the same answer, and even doing their own lead test at home, that showed negative results for lead.

The flowers are in a very crumbled state. I believe the contents were originally whole flowers, but they are very crumbled in the packages. I was initially concerned that the quality of the tea would be impacted by the crumbled state but it brews up a wonderful tea. In my opinion, it brews up a better tea with less of the crumbled flowers required compared to the volume of whole flowers required to brew up the same strength of tea. I have been very satisfied with the results from the crumbled flowers.

It is my understanding that all good crystal has some lead content ( it is not dangerous). However, unglazed pottery that is handpainted should not be used for food or beverages because of high levels of lead in the paints.

Since I was worried I asked my husband who is chemist to proceeded in an analyze and the result was negative. No lead!Enjoy our tea!!!

I used/triedthis tea a few months ago, at the time researched the ingredients,however it details them on the package clearly and i do not recall exactly. It is mild to the system(for me) and was nicely packaged...and worked ok..but expensive for what i hoped/felthow it would work..1-10 (i give it a 4) likely will not pay so much for Tea!

Nothing is written on the box except Magnetic and Wooden but it is CE (Europe) approved. It means that there is no lead because it is forbidden in toys in Europe (rule EN71-3 July 2013) . The painting is good quality, there is no transfer, they still look like new. Just in case, I have asked the french website of Djeco is there is lead in that product. Waiting for an answer...

i just looked and saw no lead mentioned? is that a joke? we have used the product a few times when we travel, i feel it is a good morning start up drink, much easier than taking vita mix, and our green house with us!

the long answer: the paint has chipped already. i use dobie sponges. idk if that's what's causing it. or if it's just an indication of the quality of the pots and pans. but for $60 bucks i can't complain. the short answer: i haven't tried it and i wouldn't recommend it.

I cannot talk about ALL paints, but, I ordered a couple of their products and my friends also ordered some. We've had no issue with them yet... The seller was also pretty nice and responded all my questions. It may be better to ask them about your concern.

I assume so. Honestly, I just can't imagine that they'd have lead in them. They are a very quality products & absolutely beautiful. I love them!! I would never knowingly have anything that had lead in the glass to drink out of, of course. This is seemingly an extremely high quality way that the color is made into the glass itself, so there is no paint flaking issues like other brands or products have had.

This is an old company, they are conscious of the dangers of lead. The pot is beautiful, very high quality. It is a great value for price. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another pot from them.

Good question! The paint used in this and jut about all tableware is lead-free. In addition to federal restrictions, most states do not allow the sale of any "tableware", or other "food containers" to contain lead.
