Modern Blue Green Gaiwan Tea Cup 150ml 5oz – Ceramic Lidded Bowl

What is a Gaiwan Tea Cup?

A gaiwan tea cup is a classic three-component Chinese tea brewing vessel that consists of a lid, bowl, and saucer. For over 1,000 years, it has been the preferred tool for Chinese tea lovers to brew, appreciate, and serve tea, valued for its simplicity, versatility, and deep connection to traditional tea culture.

Our Modern Ceramic Gaiwan Tea Cup

This contemporary take on the traditional gaiwan blends Chinese artistic heritage with modern aesthetics, making it a perfect fit for both traditional tea rooms and modern home spaces. It features a handcrafted poetic landscape design of golden forest deer, flying birds, and rolling mountains, set against a stunning blue-green gradient glaze that evokes calm natural scenery.

Key Features of This Gaiwan Tea Cup

• Perfect Small-Batch Capacity: 150ml (5oz) capacity is ideal for 1-3 people, perfect for solo daily tea time or small friend gatherings, avoiding over-brewing or quickly cooled tea.
• Ergonomic Design: The flared, narrow-waisted bowl shape is comfortable to grip and pours smoothly, while the wide 13.1cm (5.16 inch) saucer stabilizes the bowl and prevents heat transfer for comfortable holding.
• High-Quality Ceramic: Fired at high temperature, this porcelain gaiwan has a smooth, durable glaze that is resistant to staining, easy to clean, and does not absorb tea flavors—preserving the pure taste of every brew. It works beautifully for all tea types, including green tea, oolong, black tea, and white tea.
• Thoughtful Details: The contrasting black lid knob makes it easy to lift and adjust the lid for steeping control, while the white glazed interior lets you clearly see the color of your tea for better brewing control.

How to Use Your Gaiwan Tea Cup

1. Add your loose leaf tea to the gaiwan bowl
2. Pour hot water over the tea, then place the lid on top to steep
3. Adjust the lid opening to control brewing speed and strain leaves when pouring into serving cups
4. Use the lid to skim any tea foam from the surface before serving
