The go-to gaiwan for steeping almost any tea. This 150ml gaiwan is crafted from Jingdezhen porcelain and is perfect for solo sessions or tea dates. The sides are not too thin, so it doesn't get too hot to handle, plus the wide rim keeps the edges cool so you won't burn your fingers. The lid fits snug and doesn't slip when pouring, making it an all-around perfect pouring experience.
Each cup holds 75ml of tea, so two cups perfectly fit the gaiwan's volume. You can always get extra cups if you like to host tea parties.
Gaiwans can be either purchased on their own, or as a set with the cups included.

For those new to steeping and seasoned pros alike, this easy gaiwan offers something for everyone. Clear glass allows you to witness the leaves unfurl and monitor the intensity of each steep. The lid fits perfectly into the petal grooves and has holes to strain the tea without needing to tilt it. It holds 175ml, roughly 6oz. of tea.
If you have never used a gaiwan before, it is an excellent method for making a multitude of different teas, mostly Chinese and Taiwanese greens, reds, blacks, oolongs, and some younger or sheng puerhs.

Named after our beloved Corrine, the magical transcendent creature who we are lucky enough to call a friend and coworker. This hand crafted gaiwan is encircled by whimsical paintings of flowers, leaves and vines. The curved lid makes the lid cling to the walls when pouring and the extra fluted edges make it easy to handle, even with hot water. There is a slight crackle to the outer glaze which will become more pronounced as it gets tea stained. The gaiwan holds 140ml.

This is a masterpiece of simplistic beauty. Hand-thrown and fired in the famed Tokoname kilns, this shiboridashi is the perfect way to mindfully enjoy your favorite gyokuros and high-grade senchas. The smooth and fluid lines are a natural contrast to the texture of the clay, leaving a lasting impression. The design is modeled after the gaiwan, and because of the lower steeping temperature, will not be too hot to handle. It holds 100ml, perfect for solo or paired sipping.
Please be mindful of caring for this tea pot. Rinse it well after use and never put it in the dishwasher.
