This larger porcelain gaiwan is a simple yet precise tool that allows tea to be prepared in its purest form, revealing its aroma, flavor, and character across multiple infusions. More
Large Ivory Porcelain Gaiwan is an elegant and practical vessel designed for traditional tea preparation using the gong fu cha method. It is made from fine porcelain in a soft ivory tone, valued for its neutrality – the material does not influence the flavor of the infusion and allows the true character of the tea to fully express itself. For this reason, porcelain gaiwans are often used during professional tea tastings.
Thanks to its larger size, this gaiwan is ideal for preparing tea comfortably for several people or for those who prefer a slightly larger infusion. The three traditional parts – bowl, lid, and saucer – form a harmonious whole that allows precise control over the brewing process. The lid serves not only to cover the tea during brewing, but also to regulate pouring and to capture the rising aroma of the leaves.
A porcelain gaiwan is an exceptionally versatile tea vessel. It can be used to prepare virtually all types of tea – from delicate green and white teas to fragrant oolongs, black teas, and pu-erh. During brewing, the leaves unfold freely in the bowl, allowing you to observe their structure, the color of the liquor, and the gradual development of the aroma.
The smooth porcelain surface is easy to clean and does not absorb aromas from previous infusions. This makes the gaiwan suitable both for everyday tea drinking and for careful tasting and study of tea.
