The JianZhan "Yin Si" (Silver Stripe) tea cup is a masterpiece of traditional Chinese pottery, handcrafted by the esteemed artisan Mr. Wang Zhangui.
This exquisite piece measures 9 cm in diameter and stands 5.5 cm tall, with a capacity of 140ml, making it an ideal vessel for tea ceremonies or personal enjoyment.
The cup's exterior is smooth and unadorned, allowing the focus to remain on its stunning interior. The inside of the cup is adorned with a mesmerizing pattern that resembles silver stripes radiating from the center, giving it a unique and captivating appearance. The glaze has a lustrous, almost metallic sheen, which enhances the visual appeal and makes each cup a one-of-a-kind work of art.
The craftsmanship involved in creating this tea cup is meticulous, with each piece being handmade, ensuring that no two cups are exactly alike. The "Yin Si" pattern is achieved through a complex glazing process, where the silver-like streaks form naturally during firing, adding an element of unpredictability and beauty to each piece.
This JianZhan tea cup is not just a drinking vessel but a piece of art that embodies the rich cultural heritage and aesthetic sensibilities of ancient Chinese tea culture. It is perfect for tea enthusiasts who appreciate the blend of functionality and artistry in their tea ware.
