I travel to Jingdezhen year after year in search of handcrafted tea wares. Ornate, over-elaborated decorations hold little appeal to me. I am endlessly drawn to pieces that embody the oriental beauty of blank space, beautiful both for daily use and collection. Today, I am delighted to introduce these handcrafted Creamy White Gilded Bamboo Teacups from Jingdezhen, perfectly crafted for Gongfu tea tasting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eEvery stroke of bamboo leaves captures the artisan’s inspiration in the moment, while every inch of porcelain bears witness to Jingdezhen’s millennia-old porcelain-making heritage.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe gilded rim is not a repair for damage; it represents an aesthetic dialogue across time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe creamy lard-white glaze is luxuriant and silky, reminiscent of snow falling in Jiangnan during the Ming Dynasty.
