The JianZhan "Tiao Dao You Di" (Jumping Knife Oil Drip) Gongfu ceramic tea cup is a remarkable example of the rich legacy of JianZhan pottery. Crafted by Mr. Zhou Qi Xing, a respected artisan in this field, the cup is a testament to the skill and tradition that has been preserved over centuries.

This tea cup, with a full capacity of approximately 125ml, stands out for its unique "Yin You Di" (Silver Oil Drip) glaze. The intricate pattern resembles a radial burst of silver droplets, an effect achieved through a meticulous glazing process that requires precision and a profound understanding of the materials. The 'jumping knife' aspect refers to the dynamic, almost explosive pattern within the glaze, giving the impression of motion frozen in time.

Measuring 9cm in width and 4.5cm in height, this tea cup is ideally sized for the Gongfu tea ceremony, which emphasizes the artful preparation and consumption of tea. The size allows for the perfect portioning of tea, enabling multiple steepings each designed to bring out the different characteristics of the tea leaves.

Every "Tiao Dao You Di" tea cup comes with a certificate of authenticity from Mr. Zhou Qi Xing, ensuring that each piece is not only an item of

utility but also a collectible work of art. The certificate is a guarantee of the cup's provenance and the artisan's commitment to quality.

The design of this JianZhan tea cup is both visually stunning and functional, with its wide mouth and robust form allowing for a full appreciation of the tea's aroma and flavor. The depth of the glaze, coupled with the textural contrast of the cup's exterior, offers a tactile as well as a visual experience.

This "Tiao Dao You Di" tea cup, with its distinctive appearance and rich heritage, is perfect for those who practice the ritual of Gongfu tea and cherish the craftsmanship of traditional Chinese ceramics. It is also an excellent gift for tea lovers and collectors of fine pottery, adding a touch of historical elegance to any tea ceremony.
