Luminous Blue-Gold Tenmoku Small 'Doulì' Cup | Exquisite Handmade, Masterfully Fired, Premier Choice for Gifts and Collections

**Product Description and Story** 1. Challenging the conventional impression of Tenmoku glaze being solely black pottery with black glaze, we boldly adopted the concept of "Ancient Glaze, Modern Porcelain" to design a series of Tenmoku tea cups and bowls. Our aim is to bring artistic creations into homes and the market for exquisite gifts. 2. While not groundbreaking in function, the shape is derived from Song Dynasty tea bowls, imbuing everyday life with aesthetic depth. Using them evokes the serene tea-drinking atmosphere of the ancient Song era. Beyond savoring the tea, appreciating the ever-changing, dazzling iridescence of the Tenmoku glaze transports the mind to another world, enhancing the joy of tea appreciation. 3. The cup's form is a refined continuation of the original Song Dynasty tea bowl shape, enhanced for ergonomic comfort and a smooth grip. Made from high-mineral raw materials, it possesses water-activating properties, and the glaze color is uniquely one-of-a-kind. 4. The formula for the blue-gold Tenmoku glaze is identical to that of the golden Tenmoku. "Xin Ke Kiln" has uniquely incorporated rare natural metals into the glaze through proprietary technology, creating the signature blue-gold hue characteristic of Tenmoku glaze. Each piece is guaranteed to be a single-glaze application, making every item utterly unique and a testament to the high difficulty of its creation. 5. The "Luminous Blue-Gold Tenmoku" tea bowl utilizes kiln-firing control techniques in a step-by-step process. This encourages liquid phase separation at high temperatures, yielding unique metallic golden colors and textures. The crystals display noble color variations depending on the angle of light, a perfect masterpiece created with incredibly precise and unique techniques. 6. Materials Used: Imported #26 porcelain clay from Japan 7. Technology Used: Proprietary firing curve technology in an electric kiln, with firing times reaching 72 hours. 8. Production Process: Forming → Bisque Firing at 800°C → Trimming/Polishing Bisqued Pieces → Glazing → Glaze Firing at 1320°C 9. Primarily marketed under the "Xin Ke Kiln" brand, this product is entirely Made in Taiwan (MIT). It utilizes traditional shapes and glazes but achieves a completely new range of colors that break away from traditional 釉 color limitations. Our pricing is accessible, making these pieces not only suitable for collectors but also for everyday use, integrating art into homes and the exquisite gift market. We are committed to not arbitrarily increasing prices unless raw material costs rise, dedicating our products to our consumers. **Artistic Inspiration** The "Luminous Blue-Gold Tenmoku" small 'Doulì' cup, with "Blue-Gold Iridescence" as its theme, draws inspiration from the interplay of starlight and dawn.
