A Chaozhou-style Gongfu tea set featuring one pot and three cups, designed for an intimate tea experience.
Even when serving four or more guests, the three cups can be heated and passed around, allowing tea to circulate within the small world of the tea boat.
The half-moon-shaped tea cups, crafted specifically for this Gongfu tea ceremony, exemplify the Chaozhou style.

This piece is a set of white porcelain tea cups from the Chaozhou style, dating back to the 1960s to 1980s.

These cups were acquired in their entirety from a dusty warehouse of a sencha shop, where they had been lying forgotten.
Among the tea cups I have handled, these stand out for their exceptionally thin craftsmanship, allowing light to pass through them.

Measuring 4.5 cm in width, 4.5 cm in length, and 2.5 cm in height, with a capacity of 25 ml when filled to the rim (typically around 20 ml), they are perfectly sized.

They preserve the aroma without compromise, leaving a delightful fragrance at the bottom of the cup even after drinking, making them highly recommended for Chinese tea.

This time, we have received only 30 cups, all in excellent condition.
They are available as a set of 5 cups, with a total of 6 sets for sale.

If you are in search of such pieces, we encourage you to consider this offering.
