Red Plum Blossom

Admire the poetic shift of this 100% hand-painted Jingdezhen Ya Shou Cup. One side crowds with underglaze red plum blossoms among interlaced blue branches; turn it, and the flowers thin out; turn again, and only a few blossoms remain against open white. Bold blue brushstrokes and plump red blooms, fired together at high temperature. 

Perfectly sized for daily Gongfu tea sessions, this artisan teacup holds 3.4 fl oz when full, with an ideal tasting capacity of 2.0–2.4 fl oz. Thrown by hand in Jingdezhen, it bears a carved four-character seal mark on the base. This piece is one-of-a-kind—only one available.
