Bamboo hat-shaped tea cup

Description

This elegant Gongfu teacup is made in Jingdezhen, a well-known porcelain production center of Jiangxi, China. Shaped like a wide-brimmed bamboo rain hat, this hand-painted cup embodies a perfect balance between precise design and exquisite beauty.

Characterized by its wide mouth and narrow bottom, this features decorations of blooming lotus flowers and swimming fish painted by seasoned artists, both for decoration as well as to embody ancient and traditional Chinese imagery. The smooth, lily-white glaze and thin, translucent body help to bring out its superb quality of production.
