As you can see in the pictures, the surface of the cup varies from blue to purple/pink depending on the lighting intensity, direction of lighting and unique variations from cup to cup. Each and every cup is slightly different due to natural firing.
- The cup has a diameter of approx. 6.5cm and a content of 60 ml.
- Fully handmade with the same clay as used by Song Dynasty potters.
- A cultural heritage, revived by ceramics master You.
- Jian Zhan Tenmoku cups are generally larger, but due to careful hand work, it’s possible to craft a small Jian Zhan cup that’s suitable for gongfu tea.
