Ash Glaze Green Gourd Gaiwan – 130ml Ceramic Gongfu Tea Bowl with Lid

Nature’s Glaze. Timeless Form.

This Ash Glaze Green Gourd Gaiwan is a quiet celebration of elemental craft. Fired with a natural grass and wood ash glaze, the surface blooms with organic, unpredictable color — soft greens that shift with the light, like moss on stone after rain. The gourd-inspired silhouette adds a playful, auspicious touch to a vessel rooted in centuries of gongfu tea tradition.

Why Tea Lovers Choose It

• Natural Ash Glaze (草木灰釉): Made from plant and wood ash — one of the oldest glaze techniques in Chinese ceramics. The result is a living surface: matte, textured, and subtly varied across every piece.
• Gourd Form (葫芦形): The gourd is a beloved symbol in Chinese culture — representing good fortune, longevity, and abundance. Its rounded, pinched waist makes the gaiwan comfortable to hold and beautiful to look at.
• Green Colorway: The natural ash glaze produces a soft, earthy green — grounding and calming, like the color of a tea garden in early spring.
• 130ml Capacity: The ideal size for gongfu brewing — generous enough for multiple infusions, compact enough for precise, controlled pours.
• Gaiwan Versatility: Use it as a brewing vessel, a drinking cup, or both — the gaiwan is the most versatile tool in the gongfu tea canon.
• One-of-a-Kind: Natural ash glazes vary with every firing — the piece you receive is uniquely yours.
• Thoughtful Gift: A refined, culturally meaningful gift for tea lovers, ceramic collectors, and anyone drawn to the beauty of natural materials.
