Description
Made by the same studio as our Cosmo and Origin series teaware, these pieces blend a simple and balanced aesthetic with the organic feel that only wood firing can provide.
Each aspect of these pieces has been carefully designed and chosen to work together, from the formulation of the glaze and clay mixture, to the selected couplets and calligraphy style. Each element together creates a cohesive aesthetic.
These gaiwans include a tea related couplet, and the kiln has left its mark with a mix of grey, sage and copper tones across the surface.
At 70-75ml, these are well suited to solo sessions. As with all wood fired pieces, no two come out of the kiln quite the same, so please make a selection below to confirm the appearance.
Capacity: 70-75ml
Place of production: Jingdezhen
Material & Production: Jingdezhen clay, hand written calligraphy, glazed, wood fired
This series of teaware follows a few trends that we seem to have gravitated towards over our years of seeking out new studios and pieces. Developed and produced by a couple in Jingdezhen, their work is the product of much experimentation with glazes and production methods. In this case, the results are pieces that are simple, yet refined, blending traditional and modern styling. These pieces are easy to appreciate when used together, but also complement whatever else might be on the tea table.
Similar to their teaware, the couple themselves are down to earth and calm. Aside from ceramics, they also enjoy wood working and crafting various things to give away to friends. And while we’ve enjoyed good tea with other artists in Jingdezhen, truly good raw puer is still not that common within the community. This made it quite the surprise when they brewed what, in our opinion, was some of the best stored and best tasting puer we’ve had outside of Yunnan. That alone earns serious points with us.
