Traditional Chinese Ceramic Lotus Tea Cup Set
This exquisitely handcrafted tea set includes one 0.78oz (23ml) tasting cup and one matching leaf-shaped saucer, designed for authentic Chinese gongfu cha tea tasting. Combining traditional ceramic craftsmanship with timeless natural Chinese motifs, this set brings elegant cultural charm to any tea ritual.
Unique Design & Symbolism
The cup features a delicately carved 3D lotus seed pod motif accented with subtle gold detailing, while the matching saucer is shaped like a gently curved natural leaf with a wavy edge. In Chinese culture, the lotus symbolizes purity, harmony, and spiritual enlightenment, making this set far more than just a practical tea vessel – it is a piece of cultural art for your tea table.
Each style has a distinct character:
- Style A: Deep red glazed cup and saucer with off-white lotus detailing and gold trim, featuring a subtle crackle glaze for warm vintage texture
- Style B: Soft beige ceramic with natural speckled texture, warm brown lotus motif with gold accents, for a calm organic feel
- Style C: Rich deep green with subtle kiln-changing gradient effect, dark carved lotus detailing, for a grounded natural aesthetic
