Smooth and elegant; shiny in the outside, like white marble smoothed by skillful hands, and dark-brown in the inside, with glimpse of gold that appears in your liquor.
It is a bigger cup, ideal for a single-serve of your favorite brew. It feels solid in your hand, and the curved rim is comfortable for any aroma and thickness.
During gongfucha it can also be used as waste-water bowl.

DAI-MINORITY TRADITIONAL TEAWARE

张老师 Zhang Laoshi's work

Zhang Laoshi's workshop is a real institution in Jinghong, Xishuangbanna; it is an ample courtyard with multiple traditional Dai buildings, hosting enough space for her work, for her kilns - including a Dragon kiln - , her beloved students, and of course an off-limits space where she develops new ideas.
There is also a small museum which gathers the pieces she has inherited by her family since five generations of Dai pottery masters in Banna. 
Whereas Qiu Laoshi is the Dai tradition innovator, Ms. Zhang is the keeper of the original tradition and design, honed by her contemporary studies and a life of practice.

The soil she uses is sourced locally from Xishuangbanna, between the wild forests of Mengsong, Laobanzhang, and Yiwu. Each of her creations is a delicate and sincere expression of the Yunnan landscape, and all pieces bear her unique signature.
