This Gaiwan represents the pinnacle of imperial aesthetics fused with modern practical innovation. Featuring a prestigious turquoise green base. opulent Falangcai (enamel) craftsmanship. and the classic Intertwining Lotus motif. it introduces a Floating Lid design specifically engineered for a superior. anti-scald brewing experience.

Artistic Excellence & Imperial Aesthetics

  • Turquoise Green Base (松石绿): The glaze is reminiscent of fine turquoise—calm. elegant. and featuring a sophisticated matte-like finish. Historically favored by the Qing Dynasty imperial court. this color brings an immediate sense of nobility to any tea table.

  • Falangcai Enamel Craftsmanship (珐琅彩): Using precious enamel pigments. the patterns exhibit a subtle 3D relief effect. The colors are rich and vibrant. with every petal and leaf meticulously detailed. showcasing the intricate beauty of royal ceramic art.

  • Intertwining Lotus Motif (缠枝莲): Symbolizing endless life and purity. the elegant. swirling vines represent a wish for longevity and harmony. The dynamic curves create a visual rhythm that is both traditional and timeless.

Innovative Design: Floating & Anti-Scald

  • Floating Lid Design: The structure of the lid is optimized to hover or sit securely at a specific angle on the bowl's rim. This ensures stability during the pour. making it easy for even beginners to control the water flow without the lid slipping.

  • Superior Anti-Scald Protection: Combined with a widened rim. the floating design creates a physical gap that prevents hot steam from directly contacting the fingers. This physical heat barrier solves the common hot fingers problem associated with traditional Gaiwans.

  • Large Capacity (150ml): Designed for household use and entertaining guests. its generous size accommodates larger tea leaves (like Pu-erh. Dark Tea. or Rock Tea) and allows for a higher volume of tea to be shared per brew.

Material & Practicality

  • High-Grade Ceramic: The body is dense. hard. and features a smooth. non-porous enamel surface. It does not absorb tea scents. ensuring that the true. original flavor of every high-end tea is preserved and expressed.

  • Sancai Ritual: The harmonious proportions of the Lid (Heaven). Bowl (Man). and Saucer (Earth) make it both a functional tool and a piece of desk art worthy of close appreciation.
