Yanmian White Porcelain Calligraphy Gaiwan – Lantingxu Series

📖 Product Description

Immerse yourself in the refined world of Chinese tea culture with this Yanmian White Porcelain Calligraphy Gaiwan, part of the Lantingxu Collection — where tradition, art, and craftsmanship converge.

The design draws inspiration from the timeless Lantingji Xu (Preface to the Orchid Pavilion), one of China’s most celebrated calligraphic masterpieces.
Each gaiwan is hand-painted with flowing script and subtle seal imprints, representing wisdom, serenity, and poetic grace.

Fired at high temperatures (1280–1350°C), the porcelain surface achieves a smooth, slightly warm ivory tone that complements its elegant brushwork. The trio of cup, lid, and saucer — known as the “Three Talents” — symbolizes Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, the harmony of which forms the essence of tea art.

Compact yet expressive, this gaiwan is perfect for Gongfu tea preparation or as a collectible piece reflecting refined cultural aesthetics.
