This gaiwan has been wood fired and features a fully “Doucai” handpainted design of the mythical Qilin.

While most woodfired pieces are valued for their visible kiln changes from this process, this gaiwan was fired using a system of shelves and careful placement with the intention of incurring as little as possible visible changes. While the appearance remains clean, the hand feel of this wood-fired gaiwans is unlike if it were fired with gas or electric. It holds approximately 110ml of liquid.
