Bana Blossom and Leaf Chinese Gaiwan (Traditional Chinese Teaware Comprised of a Cup, Saucer and Lid) and Pu-erh Tea Sample This gaiwan is produced at the famous porcelain-producing town of Jingdezhen and bears its distinctive marking. The design is thematically blue with just enough red-orange on the petal tips of the blossoms to draw interest. Tea connoisseurs often brew the tea right in the gaiwan although it may also be used conventionally as a tea cup, the lid serving the dual function of keeping the tea warm and to block the tea leaves from consumption. The gaiwan is 3.5" wide x 3.25" tall and holds up to 4 ounces of tea to lid level.
