The porcelain tea cup rises from a small foot into a softly flared rim, giving the fingers a secure lower grip and the mouth a clean drinking edge. Its pale, jade-like surface lets the liquor remain the focus.
Individual tea cups have long been part of Chinese tea service, where their open rims make tasting colour, fragrance, and texture direct. During a gongfu tea session, the cup receives successive small infusions and is passed or placed for each guest.
Made in China from smooth glazed porcelain, this cup has an almost even ivory-white finish that reflects light gently across its curved wall. Empty and rinse it after use, then allow it to dry before putting it away.
