Beautiful Cup08/20/2020 ByDennis Li I ordered the Gaiwan because it was produced at Jingdezhen, famous for its porcelain. When the tea cup arrived, I was surprised at how charming and good looking it was, better than the picture. The outer design of the lid, cup and saucer blend well together and they have a nice glaze. Very comfortable to hold, not heavy. Our responseThank you for the nice review. This design of the Gaiwan is an antique replica and can be displayed on your tea table when it is not in use.
