• Horseshoe-shaped tea bowl design, the shape embodies a sense of elegance, tranquility, and refined grace.

• The gaiwan features retro glaze with evenly distributed crackle patterns, covering the entire surface. Retro glaze and evenly cracked patterns are usually indicators of high-quality porcelain, especially in the making of gaiwans. The crackle patterns not only showcase the exquisite craftsmanship but also enhance both its visual appeal and tactile sensation. Tea sets with gaiwans are commonly used for brewing tea, particularly in Chinese tea culture, where the gaiwan is favored for its ability to control water temperature and showcase the color and aroma of the tea.

• 

  This design combines traditional and modern elements, making it not only practical but also full of artistic charm. The even crackle patterns and retro glaze you mentioned likely aim to blend classic and unique styles, giving it a sense of timelessness while maintaining its elegance.

• Made of nail-support technique, a traditional method used in  porcelain making, where small, carefully positioned supports (or "nails") are used during the firing process to prevent the pieces from sticking to the kiln shelves or from warping. This technique helps maintain the integrity of delicate forms like a gaiwan while it is being fired at high temperatures. The nail-support method   reflects traditional practices that have been passed down through generations, contributing to the overall authenticity and quality of the piece.
