Traditional Jingdezhen Ceremonial Tea Experience

Immerse yourself in the ancient art of tea meditation with our exquisite Ceramic Jingdezhen Dragon Phoenix Gaiwan Tea Cup. This beautiful piece of spiritual jewelry for your tea ritual celebrates the time-honored traditions of Chinese tea ceremonies. Each 170ml cup features intricate hand-painted designs featuring mythological creatures, serene landscapes, or delicate florals that transform your daily tea practice into a mindful spiritual experience.

The Gaiwan (meaning "lidded bowl") represents a perfect harmony of function and symbolism. In traditional Chinese philosophy, this three-piece set embodies the cosmic trinity: the lid symbolizes heaven, the saucer represents earth, and the cup signifies humanity standing in perfect balance between the two realms.

Authentic Artisan Craftsmanship

Expertly crafted in Jingdezhen, China's porcelain capital with over 1,700 years of ceramic history, each ritual jewelry piece for your tea ceremony is fired at high temperatures by master artisans. The delicate ceramic material allows for optimal heat retention and flavor extraction, enhancing the aromatic qualities of your favorite teas.

Select from eighteen distinctive designs featuring traditional motifs like the powerful Red Dragon, graceful Phoenix, tranquil Mountain landscapes, playful Children scenes, or elegant Floral patterns. Each symbolic accessory for your tea practice carries its own energetic properties and aesthetic appeal.

Sacred Tea Ceremony Practice

The Gaiwan tea cup elevates your tea ritual into a sacred jewelry-like experience for your soul. The act of brewing tea in this traditional vessel encourages mindfulness and presence, creating a moment of meditation amidst daily chaos. The careful movements of pouring, steeping, and serving become a dance of intention and awareness.

This ceremonial vessel is particularly ideal for brewing oolong teas like Tieguanyin, allowing you to experience multiple infusions and observe how the tea leaves unfurl and reveal their complex character with each steeping.

Practical Ceremonial Design

The three-piece design serves both practical and aesthetic purposes. The lid retains heat and aroma while allowing you to control the steeping process with precision. When drinking, it can be used to deflect leaves while sipping directly from the cup, or as a tool to decant into separate drinking vessels during formal tea ceremonies.
