The high
quality porcelain and the use of multi-color floral designs are hallmarks
of Imperial designs. In Chinese traditions bright colors like these are symbols
of happiness and prosperity.
Stylized vines can also refer to the dragon as a symbol of good fortune.
This thin
porcelain tea set is designed to suit any Gong Fu tea service. The non-porous
nature of fine porcelain does not retain flavor and aroma which allows you to
use this set on different teas without worrying about “crossing” the flavors. The
thinness of the clay allows for quicker cooling and the wide flare of the rim
on the cups adds aeration to the tea.
Roy
has imported this set to perform his interpretation of the “Happy Tea Gong Fu” tea
ceremony, featuring both Lotus Heart Dragon Well and Imperial Gyokuro. A
tremendous gift or addition to anyone’s collection.
Teapot capacity is approximately 7 ounces.
Special elegant little set...
