Founded by American Charlene Wang, Tranquil Tuesdays not only sells Chinese tea but also beautiful teaware from its shop located in one of Beijing’s old hutongs. Wang has created a shop, which is part business, part social enterprise: it is staffed by women, many of whom are underprivileged migrant workers or have troubled pasts. Tranquil Tuesdays also aims to support local craftsman. The store has exclusive teaware collections designed by artists based in Jingdezhen, China’s ancient porcelain-crafting capital.
