Jingdezhen Cups — Dragon & Waves, 80ml

Jingdezhen, Jiangxi, China

A pair of hand-painted porcelain cups from Jingdezhen, with a sense of humour. On one, a blue dragon with wide, worried eyes bursts out of the waves after a fiery pearl.

On the other, a fish and a small green turtle watch the water, just as surprised. The painting is on a pale crackle glaze that fades into blue at the waves; the rim is flecked brown and the footed base is a deep amber.

A tapered cup on a short foot, easy to hold. About 80 ml, mouth 7.9 cm, height 5.9 cm — a gongfu cup.

Fired at 1310 °C. The glaze changes colour in the fire, so every cup comes out slightly different — the colour you receive may differ a little from the photos.

Painted and made by hand, so the size varies slightly too. Comes in a gift box.

You can take one cup (dragon, or fish and turtle) or the pair. This is a pre-order item: we source it from China for you once you place the order.
