With over 1,700 years of ceramic heritage, Jingdezhen is renowned for producing the finest porcelain in the world. Linglong (rice-grain) porcelain, first developed during the Ming Dynasty, is one of its most celebrated styles, featuring delicately carved translucent patterns that are later filled with glaze and high-fired for a luminous, light-filtering effect once reserved for imperial use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach cup is hand-painted with traditional underglaze blue-and-white lotus motifs, an enduring Chinese art form valued for both beauty and safety. The designs are applied before glazing and fired at temperatures above 1300°C, permanently sealing the artwork beneath a smooth, protective glass layer. This ensures the patterns remain vivid and resistant to fading, chipping, or flavor absorption over time. Subtle variations in brushwork make every piece uniquely handcrafted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDesigned for the gongfu tea experience, the cup features an elegant bell shape that sits comfortably in the palm. The linglong cut-outs glow softly when held to light, creating a serene visual effect that enhances each tea moment. Dimensions are approximately 2.4 inches in mouth diameter and 1.9 inches in height, with a capacity of about 1.7 oz—ideal for oolong, pu-erh, white, and other fine whole-leaf teas. Durable, non-porous porcelain preserves the pure taste of every brew and is easy to clean, making it suitable for daily use, hosting, or gifting.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Teavra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45687412686908,"sku":null,"price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/2996\/5372\/files\/1_b7a4a0f5-2636-4942-b831-cb5e479dd087.png?v=1782202335","url":"https:\/\/teavra.com\/products\/jingdezhen-blue-white-linglong-gongfu-tea-cups","provider":"Teavra","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
