Tongxinshe Teahouse is delighted to introduce its latest treasure, the "Blue and White Ganoderma Cup," now available for purchase on our official website www.txs-tea.com. Let this exquisite teacup, blending ancient charm with timeless elegance, add a touch of history to your tea rituals.
The Blue and White Ganoderma Cup draws inspiration from the refined aesthetics of the Ming Dynasty, capturing its essence in every curve:
• Thoughtful Dimensions: With a 6.2cm diameter, 4.7cm height, and 60cc capacity, it fits perfectly in the palm. Its size not only offers a comfortable grip but also helps concentrate the tea’s aroma, ensuring each sip is rich and layered.
• Craftsmanship Details: The straight cup body exudes crisp simplicity, paired with a delicate "standing edge" rim. The gentle curve where lips meet the cup replicates the温润 touch unique to Ming Dynasty teaware, evoking the leisurely tea-drinking moments of ancient literati. The cup’s lines borrow techniques from Ming furniture, such as subtle grooves and raised edges, with minimal yet precise decoration—avoiding excess while retaining all the dignity of the era. It embodies the Ming philosophy of "plain but not barren, simple yet soulful."
The cup is adorned with blue and white hand-painted ganoderma patterns, rendered with graceful, natural brushstrokes. Ganoderma, revered as a "fairy herb" since ancient times, symbolizes good fortune and carries wishes of "prosperity and longevity." As you savor your tea, the interplay of aroma, visual beauty, and symbolic meaning elevates the experience, turning ordinary moments into something meaningful.
This cup complements tea perfectly:
• It shines with Pu’er and black tea, as its 60cc capacity balances tea-to-water ratio, resulting in a rich, smooth brew.
• It also enhances oolong teas, highlighting their mineral notes and floral aromas by concentrating their essence.
Versatile yet distinctive, it’s a practical treasure for any tea table.
More than just a teacup, the Blue and White Ganoderma Cup is a piece of history to hold, a token of good wishes to cherish. Whether for personal use or as a gift for fellow tea lovers, it carries the beauty of tradition and the warmth of thoughtfulness.
