Lacquerware is a tea set that can be used for a lifetime." Discover the convergence of nature and artistry. This cup is not just a vessel; it is a testament to the ancient craft of "Da Qi" (Natural Lacquer). Born from the sap of the lacquer tree, this material is living art—safe, durable, and profoundly beautiful.

The 13-Step Journey: This cup undergoes a grueling, time-honored creation process. From preparing the Ru Kiln ceramic body to the final "push light" polish, the artisan performs over 13 distinct stages. This includes repeated applications of raw and colored lacquer (up to 15 layers), sanding, and polishing from coarse to fine.

Why Choose Natural Lacquer?

  • Safety First: Once oxidized, the lacquer forms a hard, non-toxic finish that is resistant to acid, alkali, and corrosion. It is completely harmless to the human body.

  • High Performance: Capable of withstanding temperatures up to 210°C, making it perfect for boiling water and any type of tea.

  • A Living Object: The unique property of natural lacquer is that it becomes more beautiful with use. The more you touch and use it, the brighter and more lustrous it becomes.
