This 6-piece navy porcelain Chinese tea cup (chá bēi, 茶杯) set is handmade in Fujian, China — a region known for fine porcelain craftsmanship. The deep navy glaze gives a bolder, more formal look than traditional white porcelain, making it a striking choice for gifting or for rounding out a tea collection with more depth of color.
Available in two sizes: a wide-mouth cup for easy, everyday sipping, and a taller cup for a more upright, formal pour. Each set includes 6 cups — enough for a small gathering or a full gongfu tea session with guests.

FAQ
Does the navy glaze affect how the tea looks?
Yes — unlike white porcelain, which shows the tea's true color, navy glaze adds its own deep tint. It's a good choice for a distinctive look rather than for judging steep color.
What's the difference between the wide and tall variants?
The wide cup (35ml) is lower and broader, suited to quick gongfu-style sipping. The tall cup (60ml) holds more and gives a more upright, formal pour.
