The green teapot sat elegantly on the table, a celebration of form and colour. Its rich, verdant hue glistened softly in the gentle afternoon light, the oil pastels capturing the sheen of the glaze with remarkable finesse. Swirls of emerald and jade danced across its surface, each stroke conveying a sense of warmth and familiarity. Beside it lay a delicate porcelain cup, its rim kissed with a hint of sunlight, creating a harmonious contrast. The scene, rendered in soft, layered pastels, evoked a serene afternoon, inviting all to pause and savour the moment. The air was filled with the promise of freshly brewed tea, an invitation to linger a little longer in this tranquil gathering.
