Ice Jade Cup - Bell Shape # 95995

The bell-shaped cup has a gently flared rim and rounded body, giving tea a clear drinking edge while its compact foot keeps it steady. Its pale, glossy surface suits everyday gongfu tastings and shows liquor colour clearly.

Bell-shaped cups are a descriptive form rather than a single historical standard. Chinese tea cups have long been used for individual drinking, while porcelain tea ware developed through traditions associated with Song kilns and later production centres.

This porcelain cup has an even ivory body and softly reflective finish, creating a calm backdrop for green, white or lightly oxidised teas. Rinse it with warm water, then dry it thoroughly before storing.
