Jingdezhen ink-colored landscapes of Jiangnan scenery tea sets

Step into the poetic mist of Jiangnan with this 220ml Gaiwan, a hand-painted tribute to China’s iconic water towns and ink-wash landscapes. Crafted in Jingdezhen using premium kaolin clay, the Gaiwan is fired at 1340°C in a reduction kiln to achieve a (retro) celadon glaze, serving as a canvas for intricate ink-style depictions of arched bridges, willow trees, and misty rivers—scenes immortalized in classical Chinese poetry.

Each brushstroke is applied by master artisans, blending traditional ink-painting techniques with ceramic artistry. The unglazed rim and base ensure a secure grip, while the wide 12cm mouth accommodates tea leaves gracefully. Ideal for brewing green or white teas, the porous clay gradually seasons to enhance flavor complexity, transforming each session into a sensory journey through Jiangnan’s timeless beauty.
