Ultra-Thin Handcrafted White Porcelain Gaiwan

Ultra-Thin Handcrafted White Porcelain Gaiwan

Hand-thrown in Jingdezhen, China, this ultra-thin white porcelain gaiwan brings traditional craftsmanship to your daily tea ritual. Its classic Mati silhouette features a gently tapered body and a wide, flared rim, while the simple white finish beautifully frames the color of your tea.

Each gaiwan is crafted through 72 traditional production steps and undergoes a 72-hour firing process at temperatures reaching 1380°C. The understated design keeps the focus on the porcelain, its graceful shape, and the tea within.

With a working capacity of 120 mL, it’s well suited to gongfu tea sessions shared by 3–4 people.
