I thought this was a clever idea for the challenge. The set-up was difficult, involving ladders, multiple lights, and aluminum foil. The pane of glass I broke proved not to be useful in rendering shattered glass the way I lit the scene.
I think "tea" means different things in different places. To me, it just means taking a break and having a cup of tea.

Nice shot - love this composition, love the light, love the balance of composition and evident care. I wish there were a greater depth of detail though - whether it's your processing or your camera, it doesn't have the absolute clarity one would like from a set-up shot like this. Excellent work though, with that reservation.
Hmm, I think others will complain about the sharpness about this picture but really I like it. See, this reminds me of my old grama's house where everything was set up perfect and clean. The sharpness seems to make everything in place, sort of like a story-book kind of feeling... I like this.
