Jingdezhen Blue-and-White “Taotie”(饕餮）Totem Master Teacup

Command respect at every tea gathering with this Blue-and-White "Taotie" Master Cup, where Neolithic symbolism meets Ming Dynasty porcelain mastery. Designed for the true tea connoisseur, its 150ml stature and mythological motifs silently declare your status as the presiding tea master.

1. Bronze Age Iconography

   • Hand-painted Taotie (饕餮) mask - The ancient "gluttonous ogre" motif from Shang Dynasty ritual vessels

   • Symmetrical ferocity - Cobalt eyes follow you around the room, fangs framing the cup's rim

2. Imperial Craftsmanship

   • Pure Jingdezhen kaolin fired at 1300°C (original imperial kiln temperature)

   • Cylindrical "zuntong" form - The same silhouette used for 15th-century court wine vessels

   • Underglaze cobalt maintains razor-sharp definition after firing
