Embrace the serene ritual of tea preparation with our Ceramic Cat Gaiwan Tea Cup. This charming 130ml vessel represents the perfect fusion of functionality and aesthetics in your tea ceremony practice. Meticulously crafted from premium ceramic, this traditional three-piece design brings ancient tea wisdom into your daily mindfulness practice.

Traditional Gaiwan Tea Vessel for Meditative Rituals

The Gaiwan (literally "lidded bowl") represents one of the most revered vessels in traditional tea ceremonies. This piece for your tea practice features the symbolic three-piece design where the lid represents heaven, the saucer represents earth, and the cup represents humanity—creating perfect harmony and balance during your tea meditation.

Available in two elegant designs—a classic formation or an adorable cat-themed version—this vessel for your tea practice allows you to express your personality while honoring tea traditions. Each 130ml cup provides the ideal capacity for proper tea infusion and appreciation.

Mindful Design Elements for Tea Ceremonies

This tea item for your ritual goes beyond mere functionality. The thoughtfully designed lid serves dual purposes: it helps retain heat during steeping while also acting as a filter when sipping, allowing you to control the strength of your brew with precision and intention.

The ergonomic design makes this piece comfortable to hold during extended tea ceremonies, connecting you to ancient practices while providing practical benefits. The small 130ml capacity is specifically designed for the Gongfu tea ceremony method, where tea is enjoyed in small, concentrated amounts.

Artisanal Ceramic Craftsmanship

Each Gaiwan is individually crafted by experienced artisans, making every piece a unique item for your tea ritual. Fired at high temperatures in traditional kilns, the ceramic develops subtle variations in pattern and finish that enhance its individual artistic character.

The durable ceramic material maintains optimal temperature during your tea ceremony while releasing no unwanted flavors into your precious tea. This makes it perfect for delicate teas like oolong, white, and green varieties where subtle flavor notes are treasured.
