Authentic Jingdezhen Hand-Painted Blue & White Interlocking Lotus Hovering Sancai Gaiwan Tea Bowl - 160ml
The ClayZenith Jingdezhen Blue & White Interlocking Lotus Hovering Sancai Gaiwan (160ml) unites imperial Ming-style cobalt brushwork with an engineered hover-resting lid rim design. Featuring freehand interlocking lotus scrolls (Chanzhi Lian), this vessel offers superior heat control and effortless tea leaf aeration.
Hovering Lid (Xuanting) Ergonomics & Vitrified Porcelain
Fired at 1,320°C (2,408°F), the non-porous vitreous porcelain body provides complete flavor neutrality. The lid is precision-balanced to suspend tilted on the inner rim, venting steam and allowing whole tea leaves to breathe between infusions without setting wet lids on table surfaces.
