Product Description 

Experience the quiet character shaped by fire and time with this handcrafted wood-fired Jianshui purple pottery tea cup (Style 4). Each cup is individually formed by hand and fired in a traditional wood kiln, where flame, ash, and prolonged firing create organic surface textures and naturally layered color variations. No two cups are ever the same.

Throughout the wood-firing process, natural ash settles unevenly across the surface, producing subtle tonal shifts and kiln markings unique to each piece. These natural variations are a defining feature of authentic wood-fired craftsmanship and serve as a visual record of the cup’s journey through the kiln.

With an estimated capacity of approximately 130ml, this cup is ideal for gongfu tea tasting, offering a balanced volume for appreciating aroma, flavor, and mouthfeel. The dense yet breathable Jianshui clay body supports clean, expressive tea flavor, while the gently rounded form fits comfortably in the hand for daily use.

Finished with warm earthy tones and understated kiln movement, this tea cup reflects the timeless elegance of traditional craftsmanship. Each piece is completely one of a kind and will not be restocked once sold, making it especially appealing to collectors and lovers of wood-fired pottery.
