What are the common needs or problems they solve?

Many modern teaware options on the market don’t carry the same historical depth that traditional Chinese sets do. From providing authentic designs and materials rooted in tea-making history that dates back centuries (1), or allowing drinkers to have an enhanced aromatic tea experience from the use of traditional clay teapots (such as Yixing teapots and their ability to season the tea over time) (2) (4). Having the appropriate teaware is invaluable even when performing a traditional Chinese tea ceremony (Gong-Fu Cha) as the proper components of teaware are required (2) (4). Additionally, their teapots and cups allow for people to demonstrate attentiveness to others in a meaningful manner in the form of gifts for weddings, anniversaries, holidays, and more.

Our selection includes teaware in traditional materials such as high-quality porcelain, ceramic, as well as figures types of clay, including well-known Yixing clay.
Care instructions depend on the materials in question. In general, as clay teapots such as Yixing are believed absorb the flavour of tea overtime, it is best to keep one specific kind of tea per teapot. Rinse with hot water after every use and avoid soap, which can also be absorbed by the porous tiles. Porcelain and ceramic can usually be washed with mild soap and warm water.
Yixing clay is considered the best clay to brew tea (using Yixing teapots only) Zisha clay is a generic description of different types of Yixing clay. Clay teapots made from Yixing clay are able to absorb traces of tea with every use. With continued use, Yixing teapots will enhance the flavor, aroma and texture of the tea thereby producing a smoother richer tasting brew. Yixing clay teapots are also highly prized throughout the world, considered to be collectables and often used to create a decorative display.
Yixing mixed clay(suitable for black tea, puer tea, red tea, oolong tea), Zisha clay(purple clay, suitable for tie guan yin, Wu yi yancha, puer tea and black tea), Red clay(suitable for red tea puer tea and green tea), Red mixed clay(suitable for red tea, puer tea, black tea), Black clay and Green clay(suitable for puer tea, oolong tea, white tea, green tea and white tea), Jianshui clay(suitable for green tea, puer tea, tie guan yin).

A gaiwan (盖碗; /ˈɡaɪwɑːn/), also known as a zhong (Mandarin: [ʈʂʊ̌ŋ]), is a Chinese lidded bowl used for brewing tea. Around the time of its invention during the Ming dynasty, Zhong referred to any covered tea service vessel. The gaiwan was invented during the Ming dynasty. Its popularity in China throughout that dynasty was primarily due to the replacement of powdered tea (mocha) with leaf tea, requiring handy teacups with lids. A gaiwan comprises a saucer, a bowl, and a lid. The forebears of the gaiwan, the bolilai and the coverless bō, were wide bowls used for the preparation of powdered tea. The gaiwan, however, is not always wide.
You know what meets your needs best! Very generally, smaller teapots (70 to 100ml) are a popular choice for 1-2 people or multiple infusions for one person whereas larger teapots (175 to 225ml) are good for 3-6 people.

  • If you are looking for versatility, elegance, great flavor and easy maintenance, porcelain is a great choice. It’s suitable for almost any tea and almost any occasion and it’s very classy.
  • If you are looking primarily for style and functionality, then a ceramic tea set may be your best choice.
  • If you are serving tea only for yourself and like observing the tea color, choose a gaiwan.
