FuGreen Jade Cup, 80 ml

A wide tea cup carved from green jade stone. The outside is worked to a fine, even pebbled texture, while the rim and the inside are polished smooth, so the cup is rough and warm to hold and glassy to drink from.

On the side sits a round medallion with the character 福 (fú) — "fortune", the most common good-luck wish in Chinese — cut in relief. The cup stands on a low dark foot.

Capacity is about 80 ml. The green is even and bright with a lighter, softer rim.

No two pieces are the same, so the cup in the photo shows the character of the stone, and yours will be close to it but not identical. Please note: this is a green jade stone, not nephrite.

We state it plainly because nephrite is valued as a separate material. Available as a preorder: we source the cup for you, so it arrives later than in-stock items.

Care: rinse with warm water and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid knocks and sudden heat or cold — stone can chip or crack.
