The team over at Emerging Objects has been making headlines with their unique 3D printed creations, from pavilions to columns to those using non-conventional materials. The company, founded by CEO Ronald Rael and CCO Virginia San Fratello, has just unveiled another impressive creation: a teapot. Based on the Utah (Newell) teapot design, Emerging Objects' tea set (including pot, teaspoons, and cups) was printed using a powder-based 3D printer using tea and sweetener as the materials. The tea-made tea set is an impressive piece that serves to show further uses of 3D printing in unexpected ways.

I think these are conceptual art projects, not meant to be functional.
