Rose Branch Longquan Teacup & Holder

Known as “the beautiful jade of Chinese porcelain”, Longquan Celadon stands out through its lustrous green glaze and intricate craftsmanship. The firing technique dates back to the year 220 and its the only porcelain-related item in UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity list. Covered overall with an even glaze of sea-green tone, the cup is sitting on a foot ring, from which the cylindrical body raises towards a slightly everted rim. The work is finished with wonderful rose patterns carved on the exterior of the cup. The piece comes with a lid and a holder in the same colour.
