The Iron Glaze Gilded teacup features an antique bronze finish that complements its retro elegance. Made from aged Dehua clay, this teacup is fired at high temperatures using a gilded iron glaze, resulting in a distinctive textured appearance. The iron glaze not only enhances the visual appeal but also interacts beneficially with tea, imparting a subtle sweetness and enriching the flavor.
This teacup is part of the same teaware series as the "Bronze" Iron-Gilded Aged Clay Gaiwan, sharing the same craftsmanship and attention to detail. Its surface is smooth yet tactile, with subtle ridges that provide visual pleasure and a comfortable grip. The interior of the teacup showcases the same rich, metallic texture, creating a cohesive and immersive tea-drinking experience.
With a volume of 50ml, perfect for Gong Fu Cha or Senchado, this teacup holds just the right amount of tea to savor each infusion's intricate flavors and aromas. Combining high-quality aged Dehua clay and the unique iron glaze technique results in an elegant piece of teaware. Its ergonomic shape and balanced weight make it a pleasure to hold. Its antique finish, combined with the unique properties of the iron glaze, ensures that each sip is visually and flavorfully enhanced.
NOTE: Clay easily absorbs taste and aromas and should never be washed using detergents.
