Old Rock-Clay Rustic Floral Silver-Accent Gongfu Tea Cup – 100ml
A richly textured Gongfu tea cup combining a rustic old rock-clay inspired ceramic body with dense silver-tone floral detailing. The warm brown surface is layered with chrysanthemum-like blossoms, curling leaves and botanical linework, creating a striking contrast between earthy pottery tones and cool metallic decoration.
Distinctive Floral Silver-Accent Craft
The exterior is finished with intricate silver-tone decorative linework that gives the surface an engraved, hand-finished appearance. The cup itself is ceramic; the metallic detailing is decorative accent work rather than a solid-silver body.

For Gongfu Tea & Personal Use
At approximately 100ml, this cup works well as a generous personal tasting or master cup. Its open form makes it easy to appreciate the colour of the liquor while the substantial body gives a grounded hand feel.
Tea Pairing
The earthy visual character pairs especially well with roasted oolong, Wuyi rock tea, black tea, aged white tea and darker fermented teas. It can also be used with lighter teas when you want stronger visual contrast between liquor and vessel.
Tea-Room Styling
Style it with dark wood, aged bamboo, stone, linen, incense accessories or other textured ceramics. The floral metal-tone detailing makes it an effective focal piece on a Gongfu tea tray, tea-room shelf, study table or Neo-Chinese interior display.
Gift Appeal
The combination of rustic texture, ornate floral decoration and compact presentation makes this cup a strong gift for tea lovers, Gongfu practitioners, collectors and anyone who enjoys expressive Chinese-inspired craft aesthetics.
Care
Hand wash gently with a soft sponge and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive pads that can scratch the decorative surface. Dry thoroughly after use and avoid sudden extreme temperature changes or hard impact.
