This bell-shaped cup widens towards its gently projecting rim and narrows into a raised foot, creating a poised silhouette in the hand. Its open mouth helps release aroma, while the pale porcelain interior keeps the colour of each infusion easy to follow.
The bell shape is a descriptive profile, not a securely documented historical category with one origin story. Individual tea cups have been used across Chinese tea traditions, including gongfu service, where each drinker receives freshly poured tea in a small vessel.
Porcelain ware of this kind is produced throughout China, valued for its fired white body and smooth glaze. Here, a soft ivory finish gives the cup a jade-like appearance; rinse it after use and dry it carefully before storage.
