6.Chinese Dragon Tea Mug-龙茶杯-⭐⭐⭐⭐


This exquisite Chinese tea mug was handmade with care in Sichuan province of China, where the Yixing Zisha clay is renowned for its superior quality.

Overtime, the clay will absorb the flavor of tea, allowing the aroma to linger.

You will smell and taste the aroma of the tea even if you pour only hot water in the mug.

  • And at 10oz, it’s the perfect size for both men and women to easily handle and take on the go.
  • It’s great for use at home or in the office, and I always get compliments on the unique design.

Why do I pick this one?

  • This teacup is very symbolic of status, as the dragon is a royal totem and only those of high status would use a teacup of this design to drink tea.
  • The material of the teacup is also carefully chosen with purple sand clay, the preferred choice of Chinese people.
  • Not only is it suitable for use, but it is also perfect for collecting or displaying on the shelf. It is multi-functional.

Keep in mind:

Zisha clay, also known as purple clay or Yixing clay, is a type of clay that is commonly used to make traditional Chinese tea pots or mugs.

  • Zisha clay can break or chip if it is not handled with care.
  • Zisha clay is prone to staining and discoloration, especially if it is not properly cared for. This can make it more difficult to maintain its appearance over time.

Drinking tea can be a healing process, which is one of the reasons why people like it.
