Authentic Jingdezhen Wood-Fired Chaishao Playful Panda Coarse Stoneware Master Teacup - 85ml Gongfu Teacup
Authentic Jingdezhen Wood-Fired Chaishao Playful Panda Coarse Stoneware Master Teacup - 85ml Gongfu Teacup
The ClayZenith Jingdezhen Wood-Fired Playful Panda Master Teacup (85ml) is an artisanal tasting chalice fired in a traditional wood-burning dragon kiln (Chaishao) for 72 continuous hours. Handcrafted from iron-dense coarse stoneware and adorned with a subtle sculpted giant panda relief resting amidst organic earthen textures, this cup celebrates harmonious wabi-sabi pottery art.
Natural Wood-Ash Glaze Alchemy (Chaishao)
Fired at 1,300°C (2,372°F) fueled exclusively by pine wood logs, natural flying wood ash melts directly onto the unglazed raw clay, forming spontaneous golden-amber glaze pools and metallic kiln flashings (Huoci). The high-iron coarse clay body retains heat efficiently, softening harsh water minerals and drawing out velvety sweetness in roasted Oolongs, black teas, and aged Puerh.
