Longquan Celadon Tea Bowl
Born from the storied kilns of Longquan (龙泉), Zhejiang Province — a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage craft — this celadon tea bowl embodies over a thousand years of refined porcelain tradition. The exterior glows in a soft, jade-like celadon green, while the interior reveals a cooler, pale sky-blue tone, the result of careful glaze composition and precise high-temperature reduction firing.
The gently fluted rim and rounded body sit comfortably in both hands, making it equally suited to a meditative solo tea session or a refined tea gathering. The unglazed foot ring reveals the fine white porcelain body beneath — a hallmark of authentic Longquan craftsmanship.
