Purple Clay Tea Cup with Infuser Stand Yixing Plum 470ml

Purple Clay Tea Cup with Infuser & Stand – Yixing Plum Blossom Clay Painting

A tea cup that is as much a work of art as it is a brewing vessel — this Yixing purple clay tea cup with infuser and stand is decorated using the clay painting (dui ni) technique, where clay is hand-shaped into decorative elements and carefully applied to the cup surface, creating a raised, tactile motif with strong visual and artistic depth. Both styles center on the plum blossom — a symbol of resilience, purity, and renewal in Chinese culture — with variations in detail and accompanying Chinese characters that give each piece its own distinct character.

Available in two styles: Tree Style (Picture 1) and Flowers Style (Picture 2).

Key Features

• Clay Painting Decoration (Dui Ni): Hand-applied raised clay motifs — a traditional Yixing decorative technique that creates a uniquely tactile, three-dimensional surface effect.
• Plum Blossom Theme: Symbolizes resilience, purity, and renewal — a timeless motif in classical Chinese art and culture.
• Complete Set: Includes tea cup, lid, tea infuser, and stand — everything needed for a refined solo brewing experience.
• Authentic Yixing Zisha Clay: Naturally breathable, mineral-rich clay enhances tea aroma and flavor with every brew.
• Aroma Adsorption: Gradually absorbs tea fragrance over time; best dedicated to one tea type for deepening flavor.
• Improves with Use: Regular cleaning and gentle wiping helps the surface become increasingly moist, smooth, and refined.
• Excellent Thermal Stability: Slow heat transfer resists sudden temperature changes — comfortable and safe to hold.

Brewing Tip

Warm the cup first with a small amount of hot water before adding tea leaves — this helps the clay open up and enhances the aroma of every brew.
