This Hand-Painted Koi Fish and Lotus Ceramic Tea Cup is a small porcelain tasting cup shaped like a blooming flower, with a scalloped petal rim and a warm coral-red exterior. The interior carries the painted scene: a slender-stemmed lotus blossom overhead and a red-and-white koi swimming near the base, so the design reveals itself as you sip and the tea level drops. At about 40-60 milliliters it is a classic gongfu sip cup, matched to a gaiwan or small teapot, and six color combinations are offered.
Cultural Symbolism & Artistic Design
Koi fish: In Chinese folk tradition the koi is a longstanding emblem of perseverance and achievement, drawn from the legend of a fish that strains to leap the Dragon Gate; the Chinese word for fish also sounds like the word for surplus, so fish imagery has traditionally suggested abundance. Here a single koi is painted small and lifelike at the bottom of the cup, where it seems to swim through the tea.
Lotus: Rising clean from muddy water to bloom at the surface, the lotus has traditionally been regarded in Buddhist and South Asian tradition as a symbol of purity and quiet emergence. The fine-stemmed blossom painted across the cup wall is the scene's counterpart to the fish below.
Petal-rim form: The scalloped rim follows the lotus-blossom shape familiar from Chinese ceramic design, so the cup's silhouette echoes the flower painted inside it.

Why You Will Love This Tea Cup
The hidden interior painting turns each pour into a small reveal - the koi and lotus surface as the tea is drunk. The petal rim sits comfortably at the lips, and the 40-60 ml size keeps strong oolong and pu-erh at the right pace for short steeps. With six color combinations and natural kiln variation, a matched set of two or three cups never looks machine-made, which also makes it an easy, low-commitment gift for someone starting a gongfu practice.
Care Instructions
- Rinse with warm water after use; a soft cloth or sponge only, since abrasive pads can dull the painted interior.
- Hand washing is recommended to protect the hand-painted scene and glaze.
- Avoid sudden temperature shocks and do not use in a microwave.
- Dry fully and store in a dry place, stacking carefully because of the scalloped rim.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a full drinking mug or a tasting cup?
A tasting cup. At about 1.35-2 oz (40-60 milliliters) it holds one or two sips, designed to receive tea brewed separately in a gaiwan or small teapot during a gongfu session.
Which version is shown in the main photo?
The red koi with the red lotus on a coral-outside, white-inside cup. The other versions swap the palette - red koi with blue lotus or leaves, blue koi with leaves, and red lotus with a hand motif - all on the same 8.8cm*3cm*3.5cm petal-rim form.
Will the painting inside fade with use?
The scene is painted under the glaze and fired at high temperature, so normal tea use does not rub it off. Keep it away from scouring powders, steel wool and dishwasher detergents, which are what actually wear decorated porcelain.
Do all the cups look identical?
No - each is hand-painted and kiln-fired, so the stroke of the lotus stem, the pose of the koi and small color shifts vary slightly cup to cup, while the overall design stays consistent.
