Chinese Porcelain Tea Set for One – Powder Blue Gaiwan with Horseshoe Cup
Elevate your daily tea ritual with this authentic Jingdezhen porcelain gaiwan set—designed for the mindful solo drinker. The soft powder blue glaze evokes the calm of a misty morning, while the traditional horseshoe cup and San Cai structure deliver both beauty and precision in every pour.
Timeless Design Meets Solo Brewing Perfection
Inspired by Song Dynasty aesthetics, this San Cai gaiwan set represents the harmony of Heaven (lid), Earth (bowl), and Human (saucer). The flared horseshoe cup fits naturally in hand, retains heat gently, and enhances aroma with its inward-curving rim.
