This ovanyu tasting cup brings two different views to the same small object: a dark, decorated exterior on the table and a lighter surface around the tea itself. Its gently flared profile and defined foot keep the outline clear. Choose it as a personal cup or place it beside a plain brewing vessel for a setting centered on color and line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy You’ll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlack and gold contrast:\u003c\/strong\u003e The fine bamboo decoration is set against a deep black exterior, making the slender botanical lines the focal point. Pair it with dark teaware for a tonal arrangement, or with white porcelain to give the cup a more prominent place at the table.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA different view inside:\u003c\/strong\u003e The pale green interior provides a visual change from the dark exterior. As the tea level falls, more of that inner glaze is revealed. The effect comes from the cup’s visible color treatment; it does not require a particular type of tea.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA flared tasting-cup silhouette:\u003c\/strong\u003e The sides open gently toward the rim and narrow into a defined foot. This is a small cup for poured servings during a tea session, with an outline that remains easy to appreciate even among several pieces of teaware.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade for small poured servings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use the cup to receive tea brewed in a separate gaiwan or teapot. Small portions make it easy to serve successive infusions and return to the brewing vessel as the session develops, rather than preparing one large drink at the outset.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEasy to build into your own setting:\u003c\/strong\u003e A single tasting cup lets you choose the drinking piece independently of the brewer. Match the palette across the table, or use this design as a personal cup among a mixed group. Other photographed teaware is styling context and is not included.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e ovanyu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Porcelain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e One tasting cup in the selected design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dehua, Fujian, China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand wash gently; dry fully before storage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrepare the cup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rinse before first use and place it on a stable tray or table.

It serves tea that has already been brewed, so you can use it with the loose-leaf teas you enjoy. Choose water temperature and steeping time for the tea in the separate brewing vessel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Are a teapot and other accessories included?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The listing includes one cup in the selected design.

Avoid knocking the rim against other pieces, and allow the cup to dry before stacking or putting it away.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ovanyu","offers":[{"title":"Black \u0026 Gold Bamboo","offer_id":44051195494463,"sku":"OV-799340829178-5445349240506","price":9.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/4674\/9759\/files\/ovanyu-20261003-003.jpg?v=1791039247","url":"https:\/\/ovanyu.com\/products\/tea-cup-black-glazed-porcelain-with-gold-bamboo","provider":"榮國輝國際貿易 (香港) 有限公司","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
