Celebrate the rich heritage of Chinese ceramics with this exquisite Five Famous Kilns Tea Cup Set. Each cup in this set represents one of the renowned historical kilns: Guan, Ge, Ding, Ru, and Jun kilns, each with its unique characteristics and artistic legacy.

Guan Kiln: Known for its thick body and deep grey clay, the Guan cup features a light blue glaze with a smooth and elegant texture. It is especially famous for its large crackled patterns on the glaze surface.

Ge Kiln: This cup is distinguished by its network of crackled glaze, resembling a web or overlapping ice patterns. The typical "golden threads and iron lines" feature is a hallmark, with coarser black cracks interwoven with fine lines.

Ding Kiln: The Ding cup is made from delicate white porcelain with a thin, glossy body. Its pure white glaze, slightly tinted with a pinkish hue, is known as "powder Ding" due to its resemblance to glass and powdery texture.

Ru Kiln: Renowned for its fine clay body, the Ru cup's porcelain contains trace amounts of copper, giving it a subtle reddish hue when viewed against the light. The greyish-yellow body is finely detailed and exquisite.

Jun Kiln: The Jun cup is celebrated for its luxurious and varied glazes, including shades like rose purple, begonia red, eggplant purple, sky blue, and vermilion. Its fine clay body and vibrant colors make it a standout piece in any collection.

Each cup is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, embodying the essence of its respective kiln. This set is a perfect addition for tea enthusiasts and collectors, offering a tangible connection to the timeless art of Chinese ceramics.
