Lotus Tea Waste Bowl # 96163, 500 ml

• Height: 9.5 cm
• Weight: 270 g
• Volume: 500 ml

This tea waste bowl (chaxi) gathers spent leaves and rinse water during a tea session. Its wide, rolled rim makes emptying straightforward, while the rounded body and raised lotus and fish relief give the practical vessel a sculptural presence.

Tea waste vessels belong to gongfu table practice, where leaves and rinse water are kept separate from drinking cups. Placed beside the brewing vessel, this form keeps the tea tray orderly while adding a decorative focal point to the arrangement.

Made in China from dark ceramic, the bowl has a deep charcoal surface that sets off its low-relief decoration, with subtle warm firing tones on the raised motifs. Rinse after use and allow it to dry fully.
