Kiyomizu Ware Hand-Painted Shonzui Covered Teacup (Single Item)

Introducing a covered teacup with Shonzui design from Kiyomizu ware.

Shonzui originally refers to blue-and-white porcelain made at the Jingdezhen kiln during the late Ming Dynasty in China. In modern times, it generally refers to blue-and-white porcelain with a similar style.

The base is white, the craftsmanship is meticulous, the glaze is evenly applied, and the blue color is vivid.

Nowadays, it often refers to designs where blue-and-white patterns are painted within enclosed lines.

This covered teacup features hand-painted blue-and-white designs on a white porcelain base, showcasing significant effort and high skill.

The exterior is entirely covered with a dense pattern of illustrations, making it a high-value item.

Both the lid and the body have twelve frames, each containing a different design, with three of these featuring landscape paintings to add variation.

The blue-and-white patterns have a serene atmosphere and are designed to be timeless, allowing for long-term use without getting tiresome.

The frames on the exterior are recessed, adding a three-dimensional effect.

It has a standard shape and size, with a large and easy-to-hold knob on the lid, making it user-friendly.

The white porcelain base has a moderate thickness, allowing it to be light yet delicate.
