Know before you buy
The tall, narrow chalice design is specifically engineered to concentrate the tea's aromatics. By narrowing the opening, it directs the fragrance toward your nose, allowing you to appreciate the nuanced scent profile of your tea before you take a sip.
De Hua Jade Porcelain is fired at higher temperatures, resulting in a denser, more durable material with a distinct semi-translucent quality. When held up to the light, it exhibits a soft, glowing appearance that standard porcelain typically lacks.
Yes, 65ml is a standard size for Gongfu-style tea sessions. This volume is designed to hold a single infusion, allowing you to enjoy the tea while it is at its optimal temperature.
The substantial weight of the porcelain contributes to its excellent heat retention. Because the material is dense and thick, it absorbs and holds heat well, keeping your tea warm for longer periods compared to thinner, lightweight cups.
While the high-fired porcelain is durable, we recommend hand-washing the cup with mild soap. This preserves the integrity of the finish and prevents accidental damage that can occur in a dishwasher.
