    The first thumbnail gives the impression that the cup is more saturated than it actually is, however other than that this is a delight to own and experience!

A cup to enhance any tea session. Lotus shaped sides move to an easy-sipping rim for the perfect balance of style and function.

Ru Yao - The porcelain is Ru Yao which originated from Henan province in the Song Dynasty (about 1000 years ago). The technique uses iron to create a glaze with a glimmering lustre which will continue to shine. The firing process creates fine cracks in the glaze which will season with tea over repeated use and reveal a golden brown craquelure.

Colour - The blue green celadon colour is the perfect companion to Yixing clay and glass which makes it a universal tea cup.

You can buy a matching Ru Yao Gong Dao Bei too.

A delightfully tactile Ru Yao 50ml cup with a unique design.

A very small Gaiwan which is perfect for solo brews and horizontal tea sampling. A great way to brew rich tea without using many tea leaves.

A classic cup traditionally for Chaozhou style brewing but suits any tasting session.
