Rustic gaiwan

While porcelain is the gold standard for Gongfucha, many tea enthusiasts seek out unglazed teaware for the unique effect it has on their beloved beverage. It rounds out the tea’s flavor and enhances its mouthfeel, making it thicker and adding a sense of richness to every tea session. This effect is not just present when using an unglazed teapot or gaiwan, but even when simply serving tea in an unglazed cup. Using both this unglazed gaiwan and its matching cup is recommended to achieve the smoothest drinking experience.

The warm colors of this gaiwan evoke a rustic impression of copper and soil, creating a sense of sturdiness when combined with its straightforward and practical design. The ridges along its surface provide stability no matter how you hold your gaiwan, while its flared rim makes it comfortable to use with no risk of scalding your fingers. Use this gaiwan to smooth out any tea in your collection or when you want to focus on your session without any extra frills.
