The piece

Low cup form, warm in the hand, snow landscape spreads along the wall. One-of-a-kind, unique.

Reading the snow

A low body of snow. Only 4.5 cm tall, pressed low, sits steady; ink-wash snow scene spreads horizontally on the low curve, like a widescreen winter.

The low cup most fears crowded painting: horizontal composition demands ‘extreme sparseness at sparse places’; Yuan Jinming sets a line of ink mountain against large snow, two or three dense-pale strokes, the rest all to white.

One-of-a-kind, unique. The low cup suits all seasons: cold brew in summer, ripe puer in winter, wide belly disperses heat, low body steady hold—the kind tea people keep for themselves.

Mouth ⌀6.9 cm, soft on the lips. The low cup nears the soup surface, aroma goes straight in—what you drink is tea, what you smell is the clean after snow.

From the studio

Low cup warm, snow colour spreads flat along the wall. In the palm, a settled winter.
