Raw 'Golden Drift' Wood Fired Ceramic Gaiwan 110ml

Handmade in Jingdezhen from Zhongbaini clay (中白泥), this gaiwan was individually wood fired, allowing flame, ash and kiln atmosphere to build the surface rather than applying a uniform finish.

The naturally pale clay still appears in soft cream patches, but much of the piece has shifted into warm ochre, rust and toasted gold. Across the body, these colours gather into irregular cloud-like markings; inside, a small pool of pale celadon-green and white glaze interrupts the warmer tones. No two sides read quite the same.

The raised foot gives the gaiwan a slightly more formal, classical silhouette, contrasting with the spontaneous surface created in the kiln.

A one-of-a-kind piece of handmade Chinese teaware, suitable for everyday gongfu brewing across oolong, white tea, black tea and pu’er.

Explore essence of wood-fired ceramics from Jingdezhen with our exclusive 'Raw' collection of handcrafted teaware. The 'Raw' series focuses on the naked firing technique — a traditional method where the ceramics are exposed directly to open flames without any glaze. This unique process means that each piece's exquisite textures are formed naturally by the ash from the firewood, giving every item a distinct natural beauty.

Each teaware piece undergoes high-temperature firing of over 1300 degrees Celsius for three days, ensuring its texture and durability. Crafted from local Jingdezhen kaolin clay, these pieces are not only safe and healthy but also boast excellent breathability after being subjected to such high temperatures.

Every item in this series is more than just a piece of teaware; they are a perfect fusion of handcraftsmanship and natural aesthetics, a prized possession for tea enthusiasts. With each brewing session, you'll appreciate the unique charm and rich historical depth of Jingdezhen's wood-fired ceramics. Made by Youning Studio based in Jingdezhen.
