The piece
Tall narrow cup, snow climbs the narrow wall, slender and crisp.
Reading the snow
Tall narrow like a small pagoda of a snow night: mouth ⌀5.1 cm, H7 cm, ink-wash snow scene spreads vertically on the body, high mountains, dense forest, far road—a vertical-composition winter.
The tall narrow form most fears the stroke ‘sinking’: from base to rim, ink must be lifted section by section. This cup uses snow momentum as the vertical axis, scene rising with height, the eye reaching the rim exactly as snow ends—like finally arriving at the summit.
One-of-a-kind, unique. Narrow mouth tall body, an elegant vessel between aroma-sniffing and tasting cups: gathers aroma in a beam, lands soup in a line, drink slowly to deserve this tube of snow.
Best for high-aroma teas: Fenghuang Dancong, rock tea, aromatic oolong. After pouring, smell first then drink; aroma wells from the narrow mouth, like a warm stove met pushing the door on a snow night.
From the studio
Tall narrow slender, snow climbs the narrow wall. One crisp stroke, winter’s outline.
