Ru Kiln Gaiwan: Series 2
$188.00
-
Part of our Song Kiln Collection, this gaiwan is inspired by the celadon ware of the Song Dynasty's Imperial Ru Kiln.
Strikingly modern in its aesthetic, this gaiwan is crafted by nationally acclaimed Taiwanese master ceramicist Xu De Jia, and features the artist's signature blue-green glaze on a white clay body. Our Ru Kiln Gaiwan retains heat better than porcelain or glass, making it ideal for teas that require a higher temperature or longer infusion time.
Due to natural variations in kilning temperature and cooling rates, our current Ru Kiln Gaiwans have an unbroken glaze, without the craquelure found in many of our other celadon pieces.
Please note that this is a handmade item, and every gaiwan will vary slightly in glaze, shape, dimensions, and volume.
