The ClayZenith Black Pottery Hand-Painted Ink Lily Gilded San Cai Gaiwan (160ml) captures the quiet nobility of literati water-ink paintings. Rendered in velvety matte black stoneware and highlighted with hand-applied 24K liquid gold petal borders, it delivers sublime anti-scald pouring ergonomics.
High-Density Iron Stoneware & Anti-Scald Rim Flare
