Description

This product contains five cups in one box.
Jianyao was originally a folk kiln in Jiangnan. In the late Northern Song Dynasty, due to the special need for “tea fighting”, black cups were fired exclusively for the court, and some tea cups were engraved with the words “for imperial use” or “for entering” at the bottom.

This type of porcelain is called Tianmu glaze in Japan. Both Japanese and Korean tea ceremonies attach great importance to this item. Its body is thick and firm, with a light black or purple black color, and its main vessel types are bowls and cups. Among them, tea cups are the most common, with black mud colored fetal bones and multiple crystalline lines on the glaze, as fine as rabbit hair, known as “rabbit hair cups”.

Underglaze grain is a decoration made by using the acidification marks formed by acidic glaze. As all kiln built porcelain is fired upside down, the glaze water sags, and the finished product has a light glaze color at the edge. Due to the different slopes of the vessel walls, the flow rate is fast and forms fine and fine lines, while the flow rate is slightly slow and coarse, forming the shape of rabbit hair. In addition, there are also famous kiln products that have been fired into “partridge spots” and “silver star spots”, which are unique and beautiful.
