White Porcelain Mineral-Glazed High Aroma Cup (Water Softening & Aroma Capturing)

Vessel Curation / Functional Mineral Glaze on Fine High-Profile Porcelain

Contemporary Taiwanese Teaware・Natural Mineral High-Fired Glaze

Curatorial Notes

The aroma infuses the cup, its sweetness like spring water. This vessel is meticulously handcrafted from refined high-white porcelain clay, its surface coated with a thick mineral glaze made from ground and blended natural functional minerals, and then fired at high temperature using a reduction process.

The shape is a classic tall, straight-sided, slightly flared aroma-smelling cup, 5 cm in diameter and 5 cm high. Its deep, slightly constricted body allows for excellent aroma retention; the fine, smooth white porcelain body faithfully reproduces the delicate fragrance and original flavor of the tea.

The natural mineral elements in the glaze create a gentle resonance with the poured-in hot tea, reducing the harshness of the water and making the tea soup more delicate and smooth. It can be used alone as a high-quality cup or paired with the shorter cups from the same series to form a classic "cup set."

Form & Spatial Aesthetics

• Elongated Profile & Aroma Retention: The 5x5 cm proportions create a natural chimney effect that captures the sweet lingering bottom-cup aroma and floral top notes of oolong teas.

• Ergonomic Lip & Mineral Softening: The subtle flaring rim provides an intuitive sipping experience, directing the softened, mineral-rounded tea liquor smoothly across the palate.

• Versatile Tea Suite Coordination: The minimalist pure-white aesthetic coordinates effortlessly across modern literati tea tables, pairing harmoniously with matching low tasting cups, round teapots, and pitchers.
