Authentic Coarse Stoneware Large San Cai Gaiwan Steeper - 190ml Vintage Tea Bowl
Authentic Coarse Stoneware Large San Cai Gaiwan Steeper - 190ml Vintage Tea Bowl
The ClayZenith Coarse Stoneware Large San Cai Gaiwan Steeper (190ml) fuses the sacred three-power trinity (Lid, Bowl, Saucer) with raw earth textures. Boasting an expansive 190ml chamber and an exaggerated Song-style flared rim, it prevents fingertip burns during high-tempo tea rounds.
High-Density Iron Stoneware & Wide Thermal Buffer Flare
Fired in reduction kilns at 1,280°C. The iron-rich stoneware body provides superior thermal mass that retains steady brewing warmth for fermented pu-erhs and roasted oolongs, while the wide flare isolates fingers from boiling steam.
Living Space Integration & Multi-Purpose Uses
- High-Capacity Multi-Cup Decanting: 190ml volume easily fills 4 to 6 tasting cups in a single swift, continuous pour.
- Burn-Free One-Handed Decanting: Song-style flared rim and elevated lid button isolate holding fingers from boiling water steam.
- Heavy-Tea Extraction (Men Cha): Thick stoneware walls retain heat for awakening aged Pu-erh, Liu Bao, and Wuyi rock teas.
Feng Shui & Spatial Energy Balance
The San Cai (Heaven, Earth, Humanity) trinity aligns spatial harmony, while iron stoneware anchors stabilizing Earth Qi.
