Description
I am a Lidded Gourd Teacup. No matter what happens, I’m always calm. No tempest can blow the lid off my top.
Curator’s Notes
The sight of this ceramic teacup sometimes feels more calming than the tea it holds. Its bulbous shape, inspired by a gourd, fits comfortably in the hands that it is just so easy to cozy up to and cup on a colder day. The wooden lid keeps heat and fragrance in for an encompassing sensory tea experience. The soothing, light green tone reminds me of elegant jade, making each sip of tea feel like luxury.
