KAMJOVE Heavy Bamboo Tea Tray – Dual-Use Dry & Wet Gongfu Tea Board | 40×26cm

The Foundation of a Serious Tea Table

A great tea session begins before the first leaf is steeped — it begins with the surface beneath your hands. The KAMJOVE Heavy Bamboo Tea Tray is engineered for the tea practitioner who demands both beauty and function: a dual-use board that works equally well as a dry-style display platform (gan pao tai) or a wet-style draining tray, adapting to your brewing style without compromise.

Heavy Bamboo: Nature, Reimagined

This tray is crafted from heavy bamboo (chong zhu) — a premium engineered material produced by subjecting natural bamboo fibres to high-temperature, high-pressure compression and solidification. The result is a board that is denser, harder, and more dimensionally stable than standard bamboo, with exceptional resistance to warping, cracking, and moisture — the three enemies of any tea tray used daily.

Unlike ordinary bamboo boards that swell and split over time, heavy bamboo maintains its form and finish through years of regular use, hot water, and humidity. It is, in essence, bamboo that has been made to last.

Dual-Use Design

• Dry mode (Gan Pao Tai): Use without the drainage insert for a clean, minimalist display surface — ideal for showcasing your gaiwan, teapot, and cups in the gongfu style
• Wet mode: Use with the drainage system to channel waste water away cleanly during active brewing sessions
• Seamless switching between both modes to suit your space and brewing ritual
