Experience the "Art of the Kiln" with this high-end collection of nine unique tasting cups. Utilizing the unpredictable beauty of Kiln-Transmutation (Yao Bian), each cup in this set features a one-of-a-kind glaze pattern, created by the natural dance of fire and minerals at extreme temperatures. This professional-grade set is designed for the serious tea connoisseur or as a prestigious gift.


Product Specifications

  • Capacity: 60ml (2 oz) per cup — The ideal "Golden Volume" for Kung Fu tea, allowing for a deep appreciation of the tea's color, aroma, and temperature.

  • Set Configuration: 9 Individual Tasting Cups — Each cup features a distinct glaze and color profile, making it easy for guests to identify their own cup during a gathering.

  • Style: Master Tasting Cups (Pin Ming Bei) — Expertly shaped to enhance the aroma profile and cooling rate of premium tea liquor.

  • Material: High-Fired Artisan Ceramic — Durable, heat-retentive, and finished with deep, multi-layered glazes.

  • Technique: Kiln-Transmutation — No two cups are identical; the glazes shift from deep oceanic blues and sunset oranges to metallic oil-spots and starry textures.

  • Packaging: Boutique Collector’s Gift Box — Secured in a luxurious, silk-lined shockproof box for safe transport and elegant presentation.


Key Features and Craftsmanship

  • Unpredictable Beauty: The magic of kiln-transmutation lies in its spontaneity. As the kiln reaches its peak temperature, the glazes melt and flow, creating "accidental" masterpieces that look like cosmic nebulae or flowing lava.

  • Consistent Volume, Unique Identity: While every cup holds exactly 60ml for a balanced serving, their visual identities are entirely different. This provides a diverse sensory experience with every sip.

  • Tactile & Visual Contrast: The set offers a variety of textures, from glass-smooth crystalline finishes to slightly textured "oil-spot" surfaces.

  • High-End Symbolism: The 9-cup arrangement is a traditional symbol of longevity and "completeness," making it an exceptionally auspicious gift for housewarmings or business milestones.


Ideal Use Cases

  • Professional Tea Tasting: Perfect for hosting gatherings where multiple guests can appreciate the nuances of a rare Oolong or Pu-erh in their own unique vessel.

  • Collector’s Display: The variety of colors and patterns makes this set a stunning decorative centerpiece for a tea room or display cabinet.

  • The Ultimate Gift: An impressive choice for weddings, corporate executives, or elders who appreciate the complexity of traditional ceramic arts.


Maintenance and Care

  • Rinse with Care: To maintain the vibrant colors, rinse with warm water immediately after use to prevent tea tannins from dulling the metallic or crystalline lusters.

  • Hand Wash Recommended: Avoid the dishwasher; high-pressure spray and harsh detergents can eventually wear down the delicate surface minerals of the kiln glaze.

  • Storage: When not in use, return the cups to their designated slots in the gift box to prevent chipping and scratching.
