Jade Porcelain Gourd Master Cup # 95998

The gourd cup has a gently narrowed waist, rounded lower body and broad rim, creating a distinctive grip and a comfortable edge for sipping. Its pale porcelain keeps the appearance quiet, allowing the colour of each infusion to stand out.

The gourd silhouette is a familiar decorative form in Chinese arts, while zhuren bei identifies an individual cup used by the host or guest. In gongfu practice, such cups receive successive pours for drinking and appreciating tea.

Its glossy ivory porcelain has softly curved walls and a subtly fuller base, details that give the cup visual warmth without decoration. Rinse away tea residue with warm water and dry the cup fully after use.
