Ru Kiln Gaiwan, Authentic Chinese Porcelain Tea Bowl with Lid

Authentic Chinese Ru Kiln Gaiwan: Embrace the Ancient Art of Tea Brewing

Nestled within the annals of Chinese history, the Gaiwan has gracefully ornamented tea rituals since the 14th century. This exquisite vessel embodies the harmonious union of saucer, bowl, and lid, crafted with the utmost precision.

Immerse Yourself in the Ritual

Begin your tea journey by gently placing your chosen tea leaves in the base of the Authentic Chinese Ru Kiln Gaiwan. Then, allow boiling water to cascade into the cup, just under halfway. Quickly drain the liquid by simultaneously holding the cup and saucer together, employing the lid as a strainer to retain the delicate leaves.

Unveil the Awakening Aroma

With the leaves revealed, inhale the intoxicating aroma that emanates from the “rinsed” foliage. This ritual opens the senses and invites you to savor the anticipation of the brewing process.

Awaken the Tea

Next, pour fresh boiling water into the Gaiwan, guiding it down the inner edge to initiate a gentle swirl among the leaves. Whether you prefer to sip directly from the Gaiwan or decant into a separate vessel, this artisanal masterpiece allows you to fully immerse yourself in the art of tea brewing.

The Authentic Chinese Ru Kiln Gaiwan transcends a mere brewing vessel. Its versatility extends to both teapot and presentation purposes, allowing you to pour the brewed tea into a pitcher or elegantly distribute it into individual tasting cups.
