Handmade Grey Wood Fired Teacup (Set Of Two)
Handmade Grey Wood Fired Teacup (Set Of Two)
Handmade by the same potter who creates the snow white gaiwan in Jingdezhen, China, these unglazed teacups feature a semi-glossy natural grey flame and moonlight white glaze. They were created with refined ceramic clay, and the unique appearance is a result of direct exposure to fire and ash over a long period.
Traditional wood-fired kilns have become rare in China today. The laborious process of wood-firing creates a unique, natural glazing, that can’t be achieved in more common and easier to use electric kilns. The special texture, color, and pattern of wood-fired teaware is a result of direct exposure to fire and ash over a long period, making wood-fired teaware some of the most sought-after teaware today.
Please note that this set includes two wood fired teacups.

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.
