Fair Cup — Dunhuang Buddha Engraved Coarse Pottery, 220ml

A fair cup with a story carved into it. This 220ml pitcher is hand-pinched from rock mineral clay — an ancient material that fires matte, holds heat, and never absorbs tea aroma — then engraved with a Dunhuang Buddha statue, one of China’s most iconic artistic traditions. The result is a piece that brings quiet spiritual depth to every gongfu tea session.

Key Features

  • Hand-pinched rock mineral clay: Traditional hand-forming technique — each cup is unique, no two are identical
  • Dunhuang Buddha engraving: Carved relief inspired by the Dunhuang cave murals — adds Zen atmosphere and cultural significance to your tea table

  • Turned-over rim edge: Cool-to-touch lip design — comfortable grip even when tea is hot
  • Non-aroma-absorbing clay: High-temperature fired rock clay preserves the true flavor and mellow character of each brew

What Is a Fair Cup?

Also called a chahai or pitcher, the fair cup is used in gongfu tea to decant brewed tea from the teapot before serving — ensuring every guest receives tea of equal strength and temperature. This piece elevates that simple act into a moment of quiet ceremony.

A Meaningful Gift

The Dunhuang Buddha motif and hand-pinched form make this fair cup an exceptional gift for tea lovers, collectors of Chinese art, and anyone drawn to the intersection of craft and contemplation.
