Jingdezhen Blue & White Gaiwan Tea Set – Awakened Lion Design, Horseshoe Cups (5-Piece Gift Box)

The Lion Stirs. The Tea Flows.

Bold, auspicious, and full of life — the awakened lion (xǐng shī) is one of China's most joyful symbols of vitality, protection, and good fortune. Rendered in vivid cobalt blue on fine Jingdezhen porcelain, the lion dances across each piece of this 5-piece gaiwan tea set with the energy and confidence of a traditional lion dance performance.

Paired with the elegant horseshoe cup (mǎ tí bēi) form — whose gently flared rim and stable base make it a pleasure to hold — and designed for dry brewing (gān pào) on the included pot rest, this set is as functional as it is beautiful. Presented in a premium gift box, it's a standout gift for tea lovers, collectors, and anyone who appreciates the spirited beauty of Chinese ceramic art.
