The creamy blue of the distinctive Ru glaze was first pioneered in the Song Dynasty to evoke the sky. Now, the master craftspeople at the Jie Feng studio in Dehua fire these Ru pieces at over 1100 degrees celsius to bring back this song dynasty tradition. This set comes with a gaiwan, a pitcher and strainer, all a pleasure to hold and a beautiful contrast to the color of tea, especially as they crackle over time. For cups, we’ve paired our favorite fine Longquan Porcelain aroma cup sets so that you can appreciate the aroma of your tea with every brew session, in a stunning contrasting yellow.
This beautiful tea set of Ru glaze teaware includes a handmade tea pot and sculptural tea cup. Each piece is created by Feng Zi Studio, a collaboration between master Lin Defeng and master Guo Zhihao. Both award-winning craftsmen have long exhibition histories who decided to get together and start a kiln in Taiwan to faithfully revive the Song Dynasty Ru ware culture. Ru was first treasured for its creamy rich blues that evoked the sky, and Feng Zi studio delivers with glazes that feel as deep as they are rich, as smooth as they are lustrous under the surface. These pieces were wood-fired at over 1100 degrees celsius to achieve their beautiful glaze. The results are a pleasure to hold and a beautiful contrast against the brewed tea to elevate gongfu ceremony. Pair with your favorite pitcher or pour directly from the small pot into your cup.

Lacquer arts in China date back over three thousand years to the Shang Dynasty. This spectacular piece draws on ancient tradition, combining lacquer with classic Ru Kiln ceramics. While the oldest lacquer wares are made from turned and carved wood, dipped in countless layers of resin, the problem in bringing this ancient craft into tea culture is lacquer’s dislike of boiling water. Feng Zi Studio takes up the challenge, by making the gaiwan material their stunning Ru, leaving the inside lacquer-free so that the cup can withstand generations of use. The lacquer layer is built up over many applications, creating a soft smooth feeling, and a beautiful contrasting color to the blue Ru glaze. Shell inlay has always been a lacquer classic, but Fengzi takes tradition and makes it dreamy, swirling and perfectly modern. All three pieces of the gaiwan feature a lacquer side and Ru side for stunning contrast. The gaiwan shape itself is perfect for any tea and the thick walls keep the brew insulated as it steeps, making your tea more aromatic and rich.

Jie Feng Studio creates exquisitely soft Ru glaze pottery, full of depth and light crazing. This clever brew mug packs into a protective travel case to bring on trips, take to work, or carry outside to the park.

Now, the master craftspeople at the Jie Feng studio in Dehua fire these Ru pieces at over 1100 degrees celsius to bring back this Song Dynasty tradition. While Ru has gained immense popularity for its soft creamy look over the centuries, modern Ru usually falls short of its Song Dynasty predecessors with a flat-looking glaze and lack of luster. The unique high-firing process and meticulous glazing work at Jie Feng Studio yields remarkably lustrous Ru with a crystalline depth and subtle crackling. This scalloped cup shows off the textural difference between glazed and unglazed along the ridges of the cup. The size makes it perfect for solo gongfu sessions since it can hold nearly a full pour from a small gaiwan or yixing teapot.
This personal brew mug is all about the details- a strikingly generous strainer fine enough to keep small leaves out of your mug but well-designed enough to allow water to drain through quickly and efficiently. The handle is a pleasure to hold with its decorative flare that makes for an easier grip, while the lid flips over to act as a stable saucer for your strainer between steepings. The weight and thinness of the cup itself makes it easy to sip tea and get the most out of its aromatics.

This creamy blue-green Ru glaze cup celebrates the tradition of bringing new life to old pieces through gold repair work. As ancient pieces are excavated, instead of preserving cracked shards, modern collectors are repairing these relics with gold so that they can be used in tea brewing the way the original artist intended. This gold work has spurred the growth of a new craft, adding adornment to the repairs- a modern dialog with ancient pieces. This Ru pot draws on the goldwork tradition with a golden motif of its own, a contrast to the lightly-crackled Ru glaze itself.
