Hand-painted Bamboo Porcelain Gaiwan
Hand-painted Bamboo Porcelain Gaiwan
With the porcelain gaiwan as the canvas, this special gaiwan made by a ceramic company specializing in quality gong fu teaware in Jingdezhen, China, features a creamy white glaze with traditional black ink hand-painted bamboos that flows between the lid, cup, and tray. In Chinese culture, bamboo is a symbol of oriental beauty. It represents the characters of moral integrity, resistance, modesty, and loyalty. It also stands as an example of loneliness and elegance, among others. This value becomes one of the major themes in Chinese painting, calligraphy, and poetry. The size of this gaiwan also makes it comfortable to hold in hand.

Additional Information:
It’s food safe, of course. And also dishwasher safe. However, I strongly recommend that you wash and dry it by hand, and use it gently. Please do not use on an open flame, gas or electric stove-top. And try to avoid alternating hot and cold, which could cause cracking.
