Know before you buy
Yes, they are designed for everyday tea rituals. However, because they are handcrafted stoneware, they require hand washing and should not be placed in the dishwasher or microwave.
The 30ml size is specifically intended for traditional gongfu-style tea tasting. This small volume allows you to savor the nuances of high-quality oolong, black, or puerh teas in small, concentrated pours.
The transparent celadon glaze is inspired by historical Longquan kilns and is crafted using natural river silt. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the smooth stoneware surface is designed to help preserve the tea's aroma and flavor profile.
No, these cups are not double-walled. They are crafted from traditional stoneware, which provides a tactile, authentic feel but will conduct heat, so please handle them carefully when filled with hot tea.
The floral theme is integrated into the design aesthetic of the set, reflecting the Song Dynasty style. The unique blue-green hue is achieved through the natural river silt glaze, giving each piece a subtle, organic appearance rather than a stark, printed pattern.
