Vintage Chinese Blue Gaiwan Tea Bowl with Lid - Ming Dynasty Style


Vintage Gaiwan tea bowl. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this unmarked piece is reminiscent of the Ming Dynasty era, characterized by its graceful blue design and impeccable glossy finish.

The Gaiwan, a symbol of traditional tea brewing, holds a rich history dating back to the Ming Dynasty. Innovations in tea ritual and preparation during this period gave birth to this versatile vessel, designed to enhance the experience of loose-leaf tea infusion.

This Gaiwan stands 10cm tall with a diameter of 10cm, weighing 190g. Its flawless condition, devoid of any chips, cracks, or grazing, ensures a delightful tea experience with every use.

Unveil the artistry of tea brewing as you admire the infusion process through the open surface of the Gaiwan. Its glazed interior preserves the purity of flavor and aroma, making it ideal for delicate teas like oolong, green, and white varieties.

Embrace the tradition of tea tasting with the three-piece design of the Gaiwan, comprising a saucer, bowl, and lid. Whether savoring tea directly from the bowl or decanting it into another vessel, this Gaiwan promises an authentic and refined tea-drinking experience.

Elevate your tea collection with this prized Gaiwan, a testament to the rich heritage and craftsmanship of Chinese tea culture. Perfect for collectors and tea enthusiasts alike, it's a timeless addition to any tea ritual or collection.
