Discover the Timeless Art of Chinese Tea Brewing with This Handcrafted Gaiwan
A gaiwan is the iconic traditional Chinese tea brewing vessel, dating back over 1,000 years. Composed of three parts – a lid, a bowl, and a saucer – this elegant design lets you control every step of brewing to unlock the perfect flavor from any tea, from delicate green tea to rich oolong and bold black tea.
What Makes This Gaiwan Special
- Striking Traditional Aesthetic: This gaiwan features a sophisticated matte black body paired with a crisp white interior. The lid is decorated with a hand-inspired traditional Chinese ink landscape painting, complete with rolling green mountains, soft misty valleys, and a delicate flying bird, bringing the serene beauty of Chinese nature art to your tea table.
- Premium Ceramic Quality: Crafted from high-fired food-safe ceramic, this gaiwan offers ideal insulation to keep your tea at the perfect temperature, while its smooth non-porous surface resists flavor absorption. It’s easy to clean, and durable enough for daily use for years to come.
- User-Friendly Design: The round knob on the lid makes lifting and adjusting effortless, letting you control steeping time and pour smoothly without messy spills. The medium 5.75oz (170ml) capacity fits comfortably in your hand, the wide rim prevents splashes, and the saucer protects your table from heat and moisture while keeping your setup neat and stable.
How to Use Your Gaiwan
- Add your loose leaf tea to the bowl
- Hold the saucer with one hand, tilt the lid slightly to hold back the tea leaves, and pour smoothly into your cup or gongdao bei (fair pitcher)
>Pour hot water over the tea, place the lid on top, and let steep to your desired strength
