product description

Tears Jian Zhan Tenmoku Tea Cup

Capacity: 110 ml

Diameter: 8.5 CM

Depth: 5 CM

Heat Resistant: Up to 150°C

Made by Chinesetea4u, the Tears Jian Zhan Tenmoku Tea Cup is the product of a careful making process that takes more than 72 hours to complete. Its rounded profile and open rim are designed to give the tea space to unfold naturally, so the liquor can settle and cool at a pleasant pace before each sip.

Once it has been fired under very high heat, the glaze develops a deep iron-rich finish along with the signature dark patterning that defines Jian Zhan Tenmoku ware. Because that surface effect comes from kiln work rather than ordinary decoration, every cup carries its own visual character and feels special on the tea table.

This piece is as practical as it is decorative, making it suitable for relaxed daily brewing, formal tea service, or a thoughtful present for birthdays, housewarmings, and other important occasions. It helps keep warmth in the cup, can make the taste feel fuller and smoother, and pairs especially well with quiet tea moments when appearance and function matter equally. The wide opening also makes it easy to admire the color of the infusion as it changes in the light.

With a 100% satisfaction guarantee and more than 10,000 five-star customer reviews, it offers reassuring quality for anyone looking for a refined tea vessel with lasting appeal.

    I purchased this cup, Tears, in honor of my daughter who passed in September 2022. We shared a love of tea and the tears pattern was perfect. Love it

    This was a gift for my granddaughter who loves everything Japanese. Since I haven't seen it I asked her to rate it. She thought it was very pretty and very well made. I was impressed that she received it 2 days after I ordered it.

    Start to finish, this was an exceptional purchase.
    First off, 2 min. After I hit the "pay" button, I worried that my cups (I ordered 2) would come in a single dual compartment box. As these were two separate gifts I panicked. Reached out to Customer service and within minutes received a very courteous reply from Yuki. She assured me that my cups would come in their own little boxes. Ok! Yay!

    I bought one of each, one handled and this one - which I cup into both hands as I sip. I feel so at peace doing so. The quality is impressive. The beauty of the glaze is a marvel. We just keep looking at it at different angles to find hidden gems of flare and light. I asked my husband to purchase me on of these for all of my gifts going forward. They are just lovely.

    it's just as beautiful as the photos: a metallic sheen ranging from silver to bronze to copper, with undertones of a rich, vibrant inky blue-black. i love holding this cup to the light to watch the colors shift, even more so when it's full of tea! but pictures cannot convey my favorite aspect of this cup: the texture. i can't stop running my fingers over the ripples and bubbles in the glaze, alternatively glossy and matte, which contrasts perfectly with the fine grain of the unglazed base. shipp...

    This pattern is beautiful, the shine peeks out from the dark top glaze with an iridescence. The color of my bowl is quite different than the photo in line but I still love it! I understand that each bowl will be unique with this technique.

    When I first stumbled across this cup it was through random advertisement. I debated on it for about 2 months before deciding to make the purchase. Every comment I have seen is correct in that pictures simply don't convey how aesthetically pleasing these cups are. Good solid weight, beautiful design and I especially was pleasantly surprised about the kanji character inscriptions on the bottom of each cup. I have used it for tea, but because I'm a barbarian this picture shows sake in the cup. De...

    The cup is beautiful, although the colours are considerably less vibrant in person than on the website. The packaging makes a very special present.
