Ru Yao Teacup
Ru Yao Teacup
Handmade by a potter in Jingdezhen, China, this Ru Yao (汝窑) teacup features a dark brown ring on top and a light jade glaze that appears shiny. Ru Yao teaware is known for its crackled effect over time. Particularly for this teacup, it takes about a year or so to develop the crackled appearance. The wall of this teacup is medium-thick, it has a nice weight to hold in hand with its round body and a small foot. We especially like the smooth glaze and handsome look of this teacup, not to mention the future joy to see the teacup change over time and develop that unique crackled appearance. The size of this teacup is perfect for a solo session.

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.
