Authentic Jingdezhen Ru Ware & Yuan Blue-and-White Peony Budai Two-Piece Gaiwan Tea Bowl - 160ml
The ClayZenith Jingdezhen Ru Ware & Yuan Blue-and-White Budai Two-Piece Gaiwan (160ml) is modeled in the auspicious rounded silhouette of the fortune pouch (Budai Gaiwan). Combining Song Dynasty sky-blue living crackle celadon with 14th-century Yuan Dynasty cobalt peony brushwork, this two-piece bowl-and-lid architecture offers simplified handling and superior thermal mass.
Budai Pouch Geometry & Living Kaipian Crackle
Fired at 1,320°C (2,408°F), the natural iron-reduction celadon glaze forms delicate micro-crackles that absorb tea polyphenols with daily use, developing golden-amber veins (Jinsi Tiexian). The two-piece structure eliminates the saucer foot, allowing direct, intuitive bowl grasping with an anti-scald flared rim.
Living Space Integration & Gifting
- Mindful Table Brewing: Rounded pouch belly allows whole tea leaves to expand freely.
- Scholarly Display: Classical cobalt peony and crackle celadon add historical dignity to tea bars.
- Auspicious Fortune Gifting: The Budai pouch symbolizes gathering treasure and good fortune, making it an ideal gift for housewarmings and promotions.
Feng Shui & Spatial Energy Balance
The Budai Pouch Form (Cloth Bag of Fortune) represents Receptivity, Contentment, and Gathering Wealth. Aligned with the Water Element (Celadon/Cobalt), this vessel acts as an energetic magnet for positive prosperity and domestic peace.
