    About

    Porcelain gives a tea cup a particular clarity. Its thin, smooth walls feel light in the hand, while the white interior leaves the colour of the infusion unchanged. Pale green tea, golden oolong and dark amber puerh can all be seen as they are.

    This cup adds texture without making the form complicated. A three-dimensional relief rises gently from the surface, giving the fingers something to follow as the cup turns in the hand. The decoration is part of the cup rather than printed over it, so the effect comes through light and touch as much as colour.

    At 100 ml, it is made for smaller pours. This size works naturally with a gaiwan or compact teapot, where the same leaves are brewed several times and each infusion is served before the next begins.

    The cup is handmade, so individual pieces may carry small differences in the relief and finish. These details give the otherwise simple white porcelain a more personal character at the table.

    Use & Care

    How to Use

    Warm the cup with hot water, then empty it before adding tea. Its 100 ml capacity works well with a gaiwan or small teapot and with teas prepared through several short infusions.

    The white interior is useful for observing the colour and clarity of green tea, oolong, white tea, black tea and puerh.

    How to Care

    Wash gently by hand with mild dish soap and a soft sponge.

    Avoid abrasive cleaners, direct heat and sudden temperature changes. Dry well before storing.
