Inspired by the elegance of Northern Song Dynasty Ru ware, this teacup and saucer set revives the timeless artistry of China’s most revered ceramics.

The cup and matching saucer are each crafted using the traditional three-point support firing technique, leaving delicate spur marks as a testament to authentic craftsmanship. The entire surface is coated in a smooth sky-blue celadon glaze, with natural “crab-claw” crackle patterns spreading across the surface, a hallmark of classic Ru kiln beauty.

In the Song dynasty, tea drinking was regarded as a refined ritual rather than a simple act. The pairing of cup and saucer not only served a practical purpose—protecting the hand from heat—but also enhanced the aesthetic experience, creating a sense of harmony and elegance at the tea table.
