Antique Style "Ten Thousand Flowers" Han-Wa Tea Set | Aged Clay & Blue-and-White Porcelain

This artisan tea set combines the rustic, grounded texture of Aged Pottery Clay with the refined elegance of Blue-and-White (Qing Hua) porcelain. The teapot is designed in the classic Han-Wa (Han Tile) silhouette—a shape prized for its strength, wide opening, and historical gravitas. Complemented by a modern glass tray and a crystal-clear pitcher, this set creates a stunning visual bridge between ancient tradition and contemporary style.

Key Features and Craftsmanship

• The Han-Wa Silhouette: Inspired by the roof tiles of the Han Dynasty, this flat-topped teapot design is iconic for its "uncluttered" aesthetic. Its low center of gravity provides a stable, powerful pour.

• Aged Pottery Clay: The "Old Clay" used for the pot and cups is semi-porous, helping to soften the water and round out the astringency of high-tannin teas like Black tea or aged Pu-erh.

• Blue-and-White Artistry: The "Ten Thousand Flowers" pattern is hand-applied using traditional cobalt pigments, creating a beautiful contrast against the earthy tones of the pottery.

• Material Fusion: By pairing the "heavy" aesthetic of the aged clay with a "light" glass pitcher and tray, the set feels balanced and breathable, preventing a traditional setup from looking too "heavy" on a modern table.

Ideal Use Cases

• Daily Gongfu Ritual: The 200ml pot size is the industry standard for serious tea drinkers, offering a consistent and repeatable brewing experience.

• Home Decor: The striking contrast of materials makes this set an excellent display piece for a living room, study, or tea cabinet.

• Sensory Appreciation: The glass fair cup ensures you never over-steep your tea, as the liquor color is always visible, helping you time your pour to perfection.

Maintenance and Care

• Seasoning the Clay: Like all high-quality pottery, the pot will develop a "glow" over time. Rinse with hot water only—avoid soaps and detergents as they can be absorbed into the aged clay.

• Glassware Care: The glass pitcher and tray are dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended to avoid scratches from other utensils.

• Deep Cleaning: If tea stains build up on the glass, a gentle soak in a mixture of baking soda and warm water will restore its crystal-clear brilliance.
