New

$489.99

This is a Blue-and-White Camellia Gaiwan, crafted entirely by hand using traditional blue-and-white porcelain techniques. The Gaiwan features camellia flowers as its primary design motif, with petals rendered in a refined and elegant style. The branches and leaves add a touch of natural vitality, exuding beauty and harmony. Since ancient times, camellias have symbolized resilience and purity, as well as passion and grace, embodying blessings of good fortune and happiness.

The overall design of the Gaiwan is well-proportioned, with a smooth and rounded rim that feels comfortable to hold. The lid knob is thoughtfully designed for easy handling, ensuring both functionality and aesthetic appeal. The deep blue of the floral motifs contrasts beautifully with the bright white porcelain base, creating a striking visual effect that highlights the unique texture of blue-and-white porcelain. The finely detailed camellia patterns showcase exceptional craftsmanship, demonstrating the high level of artistry involved in its creation.

Additionally, the Gaiwan adopts a Ming Dynasty-inspired design, with its most notable feature being the tin spots effect. These spots result from a high concentration of iron elements in specific areas of the blue pigment. During the firing process, as the kiln cools after reaching high temperatures, the oversaturated iron elements crystallize and precipitate, giving the tea ware its distinctive charm.

The blue-and-white porcelain technique, a classic art form in Chinese ceramics, is beloved for its simplicity and expressive beauty. On this Gaiwan, the camellia patterns appear as if they are blooming upon the porcelain, making it not only a practical tea vessel but also a piece of collectible art. Whether for daily tea brewing or as an elegant display, this Gaiwan reflects the owner’s refined taste and appreciation for cultural heritage.
