This adorable piece from Peng Yuan Qing Hua Studio depicts a cat running with a single flower. The stand is sculpted like gnarled wood and finished in deep silver glazing on the underside.

This is designed to sit alongside a gaiwan or teapot to rest the lid between steepings so you don’t have to hold the lid as you fill the pot or gaiwan with water, but works just as well as a little stand for small teacups.
