A CLOSER LOOK · YOUR EVERYDAY CUP

A personal cup with a little presence.

An open rim, a vermilion body and a defined gold-coloured foot. This individual cup brings colour to the table without needing a whole matching tea service.

FORM & COLOUR

A bright place of your own.

The flared rim and raised foot give the cup a distinctive outline. Keep the surrounding tea setting simple and let the red glaze become its focal point.

SCRIPT & ORNAMENT

Turn the cup, discover the pattern.

Gold-coloured script wraps around the exterior, with lotus ornament near the foot. The angled view brings together the decoration and the curve of the bowl.

THE INTERIOR

Let the tea take its place.

The pale interior contrasts with the richly decorated exterior. From above, the focus shifts from the lettering to the colour of your tea.

GOOD FORTUNE · WISDOM · LOTUS

A good wish you can use every day.

Red offers the warmth of a celebration. Sutra lettering and lotus ornament give the cup a cultural story to share with the person who receives it.

Red · a flourishing next chapter

An auspicious colour in Chinese celebrations, red suits a wish for happiness and a flourishing life. A cup makes that greeting part of an ordinary day.

Heart Sutra · pay attention

The Heart Sutra belongs to the Buddhist wisdom tradition. Its presence can be a quiet cue to pause for the aroma, the first sip and the company at your table.

Lotus · a clear intention

Lotus ornament recalls a Buddhist symbol of purity and awakening. It offers a thoughtful wish to keep a clear intention while remaining part of everyday life.

Carry a little of the tradition into your everyday. These meanings express cultural wishes, without promising a change in fortune or outcomes.

A PLACE IN YOUR EVERYDAY

Make a little room for it.

Who would you share it with?

Choose the cup you will reach for each day. A stable tray, your favourite tea and a few unrushed minutes are enough to make the setting personal.

A GESTURE TO REMEMBER

A small celebration, kept close.

The supplied photographs show a light-coloured presentation box with a dark interior. Add a note naming the occasion: a birthday, a new role or a thank-you that deserves to last.

MAKE IT YOUR OWN

A place in your everyday.

At your everyday tea place

Set it on a stable tray within easy reach, leaving space to lift it comfortably. The pale interior helps you appreciate the changing colour of your tea.

For a guest’s first cup

Prepare a single place with the cup and a folded cloth. Pair the bright glaze with a restrained setting so the recipient can notice the lettering and foot.

Care for your piece

Wash gently by hand with a soft cloth. Rinse and dry fully before storing.

Avoid abrasive cleaners, sudden temperature changes and impacts. Confirm dishwasher and microwave suitability before use.

Hot tea heats ceramic. Use care when lifting the bowl or adjusting a lid.

The meaning, in context

References to good fortune describe traditional symbolism and the intention of a gift. The cup is not presented as a consecrated object or a means of attracting wealth.

These are cultural wishes and personal interpretations, rather than promised outcomes.
