Product Overview

Hand-Painted Daisy Gaiwan is a two-piece porcelain tea vessel with an elegant horseshoe shape, designed for both aesthetic pleasure and functional ease. Measuring 98 mm in width and 84 mm in height, it holds a refined 120 ml of tea — perfect for solitary moments of reflection or quiet appreciation. The form gently flares outward, echoing classical Song Dynasty lines while enhancing comfort in the hand and encouraging the natural unfolding of tea leaves.

Artistic Appreciation

Adorned with hand-painted daisy blossoms, this gaiwan evokes the tender beauty of a spring garden. Each petal is softly brushed in pink, accented by gentle yellow pollen and slender green stems, all resting atop a pale green and ivory white canvas. The result is a watercolor-like charm — a visual harmony that brings to mind the poetic elegance of Song Dynasty gardens and the quiet rhythms of nature. Every angle feels like a page from a pastoral painting.

Craftsmanship Analysis

This piece is finished with traditional overglaze painting — a technique celebrated for its brilliance and detail. After the porcelain is first fired, artisans delicately apply pigments onto the surface, followed by a second, low-temperature firing to preserve color intensity. The result is a smooth and durable finish, where each daisy is rendered with flowing lines and vibrant hues. The light texture and tactile warmth add another dimension to the viewing and handling experience.

Creative Inspiration

Legend tells of a hermit artist from the Song Dynasty who lived among wild daisies in a remote valley. Drawn by their purity and natural grace, he began painting them onto tea vessels as a symbol of peaceful living. Modern artisans carry on this tradition, using daisy motifs to bridge ancient aesthetic ideals with modern sensibility. Hand-Painted Daisy Gaiwan thus becomes a floral homage — not just to the flower, but to the slow life and soulfulness that tea culture represents.

Value & Versatility

Hand-Painted Daisy Gaiwan is more than a tea tool — it is a personal ritual object, a small expression of art, nature, and emotion. Its open form allows the tea’s aroma to rise gently, while the glazed surface makes cleaning effortless. Whether on a tea tray, a windowsill, or gifted to someone dear, its understated elegance and seasonal vitality bring poetry to the everyday. For those who appreciate beauty in the little things, this gaiwan becomes a quiet but powerful companion.
