Answer: •People of all economic and social classes were

starting to drink tea.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tea sets back then were made of red stoneware and that kind of material came to Europe from China. It was something that can withstand hot water. Tea was a luxury product before the time when people started to produce porcelain, pottery and other material that were good for withstanding hot water. After that, all the people started to drink tea and it was not so luxurious anymore because it was affordable.
