This unique gaiwan features an inlaid golden deer in a colorful pond to adorn the unique red and white glazing. The mix of wood and porcelain with metal inlay is a reflection of the innovative spirit of Dehua, one China’s oldest porcelain capitals. The exaggerated saucer is a a distinctive touch, large enough to catch drips in modern gongfu tea. NOTE that while this gaiwan required hand finishing work, the inlay and decorative color is NOT hand painted, a choice of the workshop’s to make this a surprisingly affordable piece for such a unique design.
