Find quiet mountain-lake serenity in every brew
““Blending the centuries-old wheel-thrown craftsmanship of Jingdezhen with subtle natural glaze finish, this stoneware Deep Basin Fair Cup boasts a textured clay body layered with hand-brushed lake-green glaze that softly blends and merges during high-temperature firing.
Shaped with a deeper rounded body, gently curved walls, and a subtle inward transition toward the upper rim, it creates a balanced silhouette inspired by the quiet depth of mountain lakes.
Its compact proportions and refined pouring form allow tea to settle naturally before serving, bringing a calm and unhurried rhythm to every pour.
As part of TeaTsy’s debut stoneware series, this handcrafted pottery builds a relaxed tea ritual — bringing the quiet atmosphere of lakeside landscapes into everyday tea moments.”
Hand-Thrown Jingdezhen/ 景德鎮 Craft
Individually wheel-thrown by master artisans in Jingdezhen/ 景德鎮. Each Deep Basin Fair Cup carries unique weight, silhouette and balanced grip that mass-produced teaware cannot replicate.
Hand-Brushed Lake Green Landscape Glaze Meets Rustic Speckled Body
Hand-brushed mineral glazes build layer upon layer, naturally fusing at peak temperature to form soft lake-mountain gradients with unique surface textures. The speckled raw stoneware body delivers primitive aged charm, its earthy clay perfectly complementing the silky glaze—an ideal match for wabi-sabi tea spaces.
Deep Basin Form Inspired by Mountain Lake Depth
The deep basin silhouette features a fuller lower body with gently rising walls, creating a stable and harmonious shape that feels naturally connected to landscape forms.
Unlike shallow, low-profile fair cups designed with a wider horizontal spread, the Deep Basin Fair Cup embraces a deeper vertical proportion that creates a more balanced relationship between volume, form, and tea presentation.
The deeper body allows tea to settle naturally while enhancing the visual depth of the liquor before serving. The compact proportions, balanced silhouette, and smooth pouring edge create a refined experience for daily gongfu tea rituals.
High-Temperature Durable Firing
Fired through a gradual segmented heating curve with extended high-temperature hold at peak, strengthening the clay body for long-term daily brewing use.
Versatile: Daily Ritual or Thoughtful Gift
Whether completing your personal tea setup at home or gifting to someone who appreciates quiet craftsmanship, this Wide Rim Fair Cup serves both as an essential brewing companion and an elegant, understated gesture for design enthusiasts, minimalists, and tea lovers alike.

Important Customer Notice: Unique Hand-Brushed Glaze Marks
Every piece in the Lake Veil collection is individually handcrafted with layered natural mineral glazes and finished through high-temperature kiln firing. Due to the nature of hand brushing, glaze flow, and the interaction between minerals and heat, slight variations in color tone, texture, and surface details are naturally created during the firing process.
Product images are provided as a visual reference only. Each vessel carries its own unique glaze expression, with subtle differences in gradient, texture, and surface character while maintaining the overall design harmony of the collection.
These natural variations are inherent characteristics of handcrafted Jingdezhen ceramics, not production defects. For this reason, returns or exchanges will not be accepted based solely on differences in glaze color, texture, or surface appearance.
These individual marks reflect the beauty of traditional ceramic craftsmanship, where each piece is shaped by both the artisan's hand and the natural transformation of the kiln.
