This tea cup is made from iron-rich stoneware clay, which retains heat particularly well. Its form is inspired by traditional Jian Zhan tea bowls. It is finished with an original glaze formulated from locally sourced stone, clay and wood ash.

The surface features small scars left by fragments that fell into the vessel during the wood firing. These marks do not affect its functionality; rather, they are an integral part of its character, making it a distinctive piece for those who appreciate the wabi-sabi philosophy.
