Snow-Thin Gaiwan
High-white porcelain from a 1300℃ kiln: thin body, light vessel. Each curve is trimmed by hand, leaving small and natural differences. Lids touch with a clear, short sound. No ornament, only one line of Mulan orange. The vessel is light; the tea carries the weight.
Proportion, grip, a clean pour and a clean stop — all we ask of a piece of teaware. It makes no show; set on the table, it quietly hands you each steep.
Thin-walled high-white porcelain fired at 1300℃; each curve trimmed by hand, leaving small and natural differences. Lids touch with a clear, short sound. No ornament, only one line of Mulan orange.
From 56g, less than half the weight of an ordinary gaiwan. One hand lifts the lid; pouring water and tea both stay light. Light is not thinness but measure — a light vessel steadies the hand.
Thin walls shed heat quickly, suited to rock tea and dancong — teas that want high heat and a fast pour. One gaiwan carries the whole session.
