This monk cup has a gently flared rim and rounded bowl above a stable foot. Its open shape lets tea aromas rise easily, while the pale porcelain keeps the liquor visually clear and suits everyday gongfu drinking.
The monk cup is a small Chinese tea cup form, named for its rounded, robe-like silhouette in modern tea ware. Small cups became central to gongfu service, where brewed tea is poured in short rounds for focused tasting.
Made from pale glazed porcelain in China, this piece has a soft ivory cast and a smooth, reflective surface that complements both light and dark teas. Rinse it promptly after use and dry it fully before storing.
