The Silver-Lined Porcelain Gaiwan (part of the silver set), adorned with classical motifs, is a harmonious blend of two renowned materials. The body is painted in cobalt blue, depicting a serene landscape and scholars among bamboo.
The silver lining heats fast and evenly, so leaves open up right away and infuse consistently. Silver makes water softer and doesn't add flavor of its own. Because of this, many tea drinkers notice a cleaner, sweeter cup with good definition. It's an excellent match for delicate greens, sweet whites, and aromatic oolongs.
Silver is a heat-conductive material, and the porcelain shell does the practical work of keeping your fingers comfortable even when you're brewing hot. The lid sits securely, the bowl is wide enough for leaf expansion, and the rim pours cleanly without drips.
