[Taike Blue] Pumpkin Tea Set: Pumpkin Teapot + Pumpkin Tea Caddy + 4 Pumpkin Cups

A bestseller in our collection. The pumpkin motif is distilled into a clean, modern, and upright form, radiating a natural and elegant charm. The innovative teapot boasts a delightful gourd shape, simply and generously paired with a handle made from natural driftwood. This piece embodies rustic simplicity, utilizing composite material and metalworking techniques to enhance its aesthetic and collectible value. The "Cloud Mountain Blue" glaze from Taike Blue captures the serene temperament of Ru ware. Applied in a layer over one millimeter thick on the clay body, the glaze achieves a warm, lustrous finish after firing, presenting a subtle, elegant hue leaning towards grey-green. It is refined and understated, reminiscent of gazing at distant mountains shrouded in mist—deep and timeless. Natural iron spots that emerge faintly on the glaze further enhance its rustic beauty. The clay body for Taike Blue tea ware utilizes reddish-purple clay. A deliberate exposed clay effect, measuring 0.5 to 1 mm, is maintained at the rim and foot ring, echoing the characteristic "purple mouth and iron foot" feature of Southern Song Guan ware, lending it a delicate, classic, and grounded presence. A gentle design inspired by the pumpkin, creating a set that is both antique and rustic. 2010 Taiwan Excellent Craftsmanship Award 2010 Taiwan Cultural and Creative Boutique Award - Product Category, Excellence Award ※ The set shown in the photos is for display; the actual set configuration prevails. ※ The product is fired at a high temperature of 1250°C, ensuring absolutely no chemical leaching. ※ The development of crazing (ice crackle lines) on the glaze after long-term use is normal; please do not worry. ※ This product is not suitable for use in ovens, microwaves, or dishwashers/dryers. ※ Product photos are for reference only and may slightly differ from the actual item. ※ Custom combinations are available upon request; please feel free to inquire.
