What is a Gaiwan?
A gaiwan is a three-piece vessel, consisting of a cup, lid, and saucer, that has been central to Chinese tea culture for centuries. Its unique design allows tea drinkers to easily observe, brew, and savor loose-leaf teas. The wide bowl gives tea leaves space to unfurl, while the lid helps regulate steeping and aroma, creating a refined and immersive tea experience.
Why choose a gaiwan?
- adjust steeping times and water flow for perfect results.
- ideal for oolong, white, green, and pu-erh teas.
- experience tea the way it has been enjoyed for generations.
- crafted from porcelain, glass, or clay for beauty and function.
