Obsidian Glaze Persimmon Red Rabbit Hair Tenmoku Small Teacup | Factory Controlled Quality Assurance Collect Zen Tea Ceremony

**Product Description and Story** 1. Departing from the traditional, rigid impression of black pottery and black glaze in Tenmoku glazes, we boldly adopted the concept of "Ancient Glaze, New Porcelain" to design a series of Tenmoku glazed teacups and bowls. Our aim is to bring artistic pieces into homes and the fine gift market. 2. While not groundbreaking in functionality, the design is extended from Song Dynasty tea bowls, enriching daily life with aesthetic meaning. Using these cups evokes the atmosphere of tea tasting from the ancient Song era. Beyond savoring the tea, appreciating the ever-changing, radiant colors of the Tenmoku glaze's obsidian effect can transport your mind to another world, enhancing the pleasure of tea appreciation. 3. The shape continues the original design of Song Dynasty tea bowls with slight enhancements for ergonomic comfort and a smooth grip. Made with high-mineral raw materials, it possesses water-activating properties, and each glaze color is one-of-a-kind. Furthermore, it has been tested by the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Republic of China, conforming to CNS3503 standards for being lead- and cadmium-free. 4. Rabbit Hair Glaze: Characterized by dense, needle-like fine patterns that flash within the glaze, it is named for resembling rabbit hairs. Rabbit hair glaze originated in Song Dynasty Fujian, Jianyang, and is one of the renowned glazes in the Tenmoku series; it is a type of iron crystalline glaze. Its texture is similar to Oil Spot Tenmoku, possessing great artistic beauty. 5. Due to a high iron content of up to 9% in the glaze, at high temperatures, some iron from the clay body melts into the glaze. Bubbles within the glaze layer carry this iron to the surface. When the temperature reaches 1320°C, the glaze layer flows, causing the iron to stream into lines. Upon cooling, small crystals of hematite precipitate from these lines, forming the so-called rabbit hair. 6. Influenced by factors like "kiln variation," the shapes of rabbit hairs vary in length and thickness, and the colors can shift to golden yellow, silver white, and more, commonly known as "Golden Rabbit Hair," "Silver Rabbit Hair," and so on. 7. Materials Used: Imported Japanese porcelain clay 8. Firing Technology: Unique firing curve technology in an electric kiln, with a firing time of 48 hours. 9. Manufacturing Process: Forming (wheel throwing) → Bisque firing at 800°C → Refining bisqued ware (polishing) → Glazing → Glaze firing at 1320°C. 10. Marketed under the brand "Xin Ke Yao," this is a completely Made in Taiwan (MIT) product. Utilizing traditional shapes and glazes, we have achieved a completely new range of products that break through traditional glaze colors. Our pricing is very accessible, making these pieces not just for collection but also suitable for daily use, bringing art into homes and the fine gift market. We are committed to not arbitrarily increasing prices unless raw material costs rise, dedicating our products to our consumers. **Artistic Conception** The Obsidian Glaze Persimmon Red Rabbit Hair Tenmoku Small Teacup draws inspiration from the Zen tranquility and natural beauty of ancient Tenmoku cups.
