This tea cup is a delightful artifact of antique charm, a testament to the enduring allure of coarse blue and white porcelain. With a modest 70cc capacity, it's perfectly sized for the traditional gongfu tea ceremony, allowing for multiple, short infusions of tea, each revealing different nuances of flavor.

The coarse texture of the porcelain gives it a rustic, tactile quality that is pleasing to hold. It is adorned with a simple yet evocative pattern in the classic blue and white style, which dates back to the early dynasties of China and remains beloved to this day. The imagery depicted includes stylized natural elements such as pine branches, a motif that suggests longevity and steadfastness, and is interspersed with serene aquatic scenes featuring ducks in repose. These elements combine to evoke a sense of tranquility and connection with nature.

The cup is available in two variations, each corresponding to a different style of Gaiwan—a traditional Chinese lidded bowl used for infusing and drinking tea. The variations may display subtle differences in the positioning or shape of the images, yet both retain the antique aesthetic that makes them a collector's delight. Beyond its use for enjoying tea, this cup serves as a bridge to the past, bringing a piece of history and culture to the present-day tea experience.
