Jinkou Yuyan Handmade Cup
The saying "golden mouth, jade words" worked into form: a line of gold at the rim, the body like jade. Thrown and trimmed entirely by hand, one by one, each with its own slight variation — the warmth of the hand, the part a machine cannot give. For yourself, a refinement; for another, a mark of respect.
Proportion, the feel in the hand, and a clean pour and stop — these are all we ask of tea ware. It makes no noise; set on the table, it simply passes each steep quietly into your hand.
Thrown and trimmed entirely by hand, a line of gold at the rim, a glaze on the body like jade.
A moderate weight with a steady centre; the rim of the gaiwan flares so the pour stays cool to the touch; the pair invites small, unhurried sips, made for every day.
Suited to Wuyi rock tea, Lapsang Souchong and every other kind of brewing; as a gift, it completes a tea set together with the boxed teas.
