Handmade Jianzhan Ceramic Koi Fish Teacup with Kiln Change Glaze for Kung Fu Tea
Abholverfügbarkeit konnte nicht geladen werden

A small handleless kung fu tea bowl in handmade ceramic, this Koi Fish Jianzhan Teacup pairs a speckled kiln change glaze with a raised white koi finished in red-orange, set into the interior floor where it seems to swim through the tea. The cup holds about 60ml, and eleven glaze color versions are offered, from deep oil-spot black to cobalt blue, copper brown and red. It is made for daily tasting rounds, tea-tray display and zodiac-year or housewarming gifts.
Cultural Symbolism & Artistic Design
Koi fish: in Chinese folk tradition the koi is a familiar motif associated with perseverance, recalling the old legend of the koi leaping the Dragon Gate, and with abundance, since the Chinese word for fish sounds like the word for surplus. Here the koi is modeled in relief on the cup's interior, so the image surfaces with every pour rather than sitting on the outer wall.
Kiln change glaze: Jianzhan ware from Fujian traces its lineage to the tea bowls of the Song dynasty, and its kiln change (yaobian) glazes have long been valued precisely because the fired pattern cannot be fully controlled. The speckled, oil-spot-like surface on this cup formed as the iron-rich glaze moved and crystallized in the kiln, making each piece's ground pattern its own.

Why You'll Love This Teacup
- A living focal point: the raised white-and-red koi reads clearly against the dark speckled glaze and appears in motion as tea is poured and sipped.
- Eleven glaze moods: the color versions let you pick a surface — black, blue, brown or red — that matches your tray or collection.
- Fired, not printed: the ground pattern comes from the kiln itself, so no two cups share the exact same speckling.
Care Instructions
- Rinse after each tea session and dry fully before storing; tea oils settle quickly on small tasting cups.
- Clean the raised koi gently with a soft sponge rather than a scouring pad to protect its colored detailing.
- Avoid harsh detergents, and let the cup cool before washing to spare it sudden temperature shocks.
- Store upright with space around the rim so the glaze is not scratched by other pieces.
Frequently Asked Questions
There are eleven versions — how do I pick one?
Each option is a different kiln change glaze color, such as speckled black, cobalt blue, copper brown or red; the koi design and the 60ml capacity stay the same across versions. Choose the color that suits your tea tray, and note that because the glaze fires individually, the speckle pattern within your chosen color will still vary from the photo.
Is the koi painted flat or actually raised?
The koi is modeled in relief on the interior floor of the cup — a raised white fish with red-orange fins — so you can feel its shape under a soft sponge. Tea should be rinsed off after use so residue does not collect along the raised edges.
Which size will my cup be?
The listing gives two measurements, 7.3cm*4cm*60ml and 6.6cm*4.2cm*60ml, covering the shape range across the glaze versions; every version holds 60 milliliters. Manual measurement means a slight deviation is possible, so compare these numbers with a cup you already own if fit matters.
Do I also get the tray or teapot shown in the photo?
No. The listing states that the other cup accessories are only used as a photo prop and are not included in the cup. You receive the ceramic teacup in the glaze version you select.
