For the best experience, pour your tea into the uncovered recipient after it’s brewed and then into the teacups. This way, everybody will have tea with the same color, aroma, and concentration.
Not to mention, the teardrop-shaped lip on the recipient is difficult to craft and makes pouring into the small cups a breeze.
Then the tea party kicks off. Now you can tell your friends about the remarkable history of your beautiful set.
It was made in Jingdezhen, a small town in southern China. This place has been famous for making high-quality porcelain for more than 1,500 years and is sometimes called the 'Porcelain Capital' of the country.
Marco Polo (1254 - 1324) visited China centuries ago. He found Jingdezhen porcelain and brought it back to Europe. Before long, Jindezhen became world-famous, and demand in Europe skyrocketed. Fake Chinese tea sets were commonplace on many Western streets, but they could never match the skill of the Jingdezhen artisans.

Out of Store:The Jingdezhen tea set
One of the secrets of the skilled craftsmen of Jingdezhen is the special clay they use for the porcelain. This material comes from local quarries, and only a limited quantity of Jingdezhen porcelain is produced every year.
The emperors of the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties understood it, and restricted the use of Jingdezhen porcelain to the royal family.
Today, both tea lovers and porcelain collectors can acquire china tea sets made in Jingdezhen.
But unfortunately, the small number of skilled craftsmen and the ever-decreasing reserves of special clay make Jingdezhen production increasingly rare. Local workshops already know that they will have to close down in a few short years.
We select our china tea sets directly in Jingdezhen. We buy only from the most skillful potters, and we stand by the extreme quality of our selection.

Also, the cups are designed with a wavy lip to hold the aroma of any tea for a very long time. They are especially fit for tea with a strong fragrance.

The elegant calligraphy on the lid has four beautifully written Chinese characters that mean “A Comforting Fragrance.”
This set is not only beautiful, but also rare. It is made of Kaolin, a unique porcelain clay that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
The natural, superior white clay is ideal for making china tea sets like this one. It is only found near Jingdezhen, a town famous for its top-of-the-line porcelain.
The tea set has a covered cup that is called ‘Gaiwan’ by Chinese. It includes a lid, a large tea cup, and a saucer. Some say these three pieces represent heaven, man, and earth.
The Gaiwan cup is usually used as teapot. Its hard glaze captures heat and the lid bottles up all steam and fragrance for a full brew every time. After brewing, pour the tea into the uncovered recipient to be served.

With these advantages, no wonder the late eminent writer Lu Xun once wrote: “To enjoy good tea, a Gaiwan should be used.”
