The Chaozhou "Goose Feather Fan" is a traditional and functional tool crafted to enhance the experience of the Chinese Gongfu tea ceremony. This particular fan, with its 18 carefully selected goose feathers, is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and respect for ancient tea-making traditions.
With an approximate size of 34cm in length and 13cm in width, the fan is perfectly sized to generate a gentle but effective airflow to stoke the flames of a Chaozhou charcoal stove, essential for heating water to the precise temperature required for brewing exquisite tea. The natural goose feathers are arranged in a symmetrical pattern, combining aesthetic beauty with practical use.
The bamboo handle is designed for comfort and durability, culminating in a hanging loop adorned with a vibrant red tassel, which adds a splash of color and cultural significance to the piece. When not in use, the fan serves as a beautiful decorative item that speaks of the user's appreciation for the refined art of tea.
This item is available on its own or as part of a complete set, which includes other tea ceremony essentials. The "Whole Set" option provides tea enthusiasts with the tools needed for an authentic Gongfu Chadao experience, including the fan and premium Black Olive Charcoal, which is sold separately in 500g bags for sustained heat during tea preparation. Whether as a gift or a personal indulgence, this Goose Feather Fan is more than just an accessory; it's a bridge to the past and a celebration of the present tea culture.
