This beautiful piece of artwork and porcelain workmanship is from a top studio in Jingdezhen, the porcelain capital of the world. It is hand-crafted and beautifully hand-painted with meticulous detail throughout the entire cup. The clay and glaze, called GuCi, literally antique porcelain, differs from other Jingdezhen glaze material which gives the cup more of an antique look. Guci has become a hot trend in Jingdezhen porcelain in recent years. 

Chinese landscape painting is one of China’s marvelous art traditions and is one of the oldest art forms in the world. The painting doesn’t usually depict a specific mountain or landscape, rather, it is meant to capture the essence of mother nature, along with the painter’s own inner spirit, so called Mind Landscape. These types of painting are often referred to as Shan Shui, literally meaning mountain water, On this teacup, we see a vast landscape around the whole cup, with rolling mountain peaks, rocks, water, boats, birds and houses. When one sips their favorite tea from such an artful teacup, it can evoke a serene and peaceful feeling, or perhaps a sense of deep contemplation, or simply the joy of beholding and appreciating beautiful artwork. It will surely enrich your tea experience and is a great collectible addition to your tea ware collection.  

The color of the cup changes slightly due to different camera settings.
