Celeste Green Gaiwan
Gaiwans, Tea Sets, TeawareUS$17.1The plum blossom blooms in mid to late January against the bitterness of Winter. That is why ancient literati had a high regard of the flower, for its metaphoric representation of people with the strength and endurance of holding on Righteousness, even when facing violent repression by the powerful.
Symbolism aside, the gaiwan's round belly form provides a minimal surface area to volume ratio to maximise heat retention, while fanning out at the brim to quicken cooling for easy handling and smooth decantation. This is a classic shape. The lid has a well form dome for trapping air. A lid button has a well formed hollow to keep itself cool enough for resting your finger on it when handling.

This is a lovely pitcher, the glaze on the exterior is remarkably soft and smooth to the touch, and at the center of the interior is a beautiful plum blossom motif.
Both the interior and exterior are glossy, which draws attention to it even though the color is soft, matte, and subdued. It’s clean and won’t jump out at you, but it sure will draw your gaze in.
The tip of the spout is utterly flawless, it’s perfectly centered and it pours smoothly, with a clean break to the stream. It’s difficult to get this one to dribble, even if you’re filling up very small cups (20-30mL).
The shape is nice, it holds heat well and retains the aromatics of the tea, which I appreciate because I always sniff the bottom of an empty pitcher between brews.
Very impressed by this – for less than $10 I don’t think you can find a better chahai … and, why would you want to spend more, when you can get this instead?
My favorite Chahai!
First of all the design is beautiful with a nice painting on the ground and beautiful color.
Due to the short, wide shape the tea liquor doesn’t move through a lot of air, making sure it’s not unnecessarily oxidized and does not loose much of its aroma and temperature. The material and the slightly more narrow opening keeps the liquid warm, especially if the teaware has been heated up before.
The only wish I would have would be to make it slightly larger, with a capacity of slightly over 200ml so that it always has enough space for larger pots as well.
This comment has actually inspired us of an idea of developing a line of teaware for larger serving. Thank you!
