This beautiful white and creamy Gaiwan set was handcrafted with natural clay in Jingdezhen using the Japanese Kohiki firing technique. This technique is a unique skill where the entire surface of the tea wares is covered with white slip (a liquid clay mixture used for decorating the surface of teapots) and then with a transparent glaze before firing at a high temperature of 1330 degrees Celsius.
The features of these teawares include an earthy, soft texture and beautiful irregular crackles all over the surface, known as "Kai Pian" in Chinese, especially after several rounds of brewing.
This covered bowl set includes 1 covered bowl and 2 matching tea cups in a gift box.
Size is as below:
Covered Bowl: 120ml/4oz
Matching tea cups: 75ml/2.5oz
