Celadon Gaiwan
Item Number: CWO11
This is a pale jade-green glazed Celadon Gaiwan. Gaiwan was originated in the Ming Dynasty and became popular during the Ching Dynasty in China. This bowl is large enough to accommodate tea brewing, yet small enough to be held comfortably for drinking.
Gaiwan, meaning “lidded bowl”, consists of a saucer, cup, and lid. Each of the individual components serves a purpose:
- The saucer allows you to hold a cup of hot tea.
- The cup allows you to brew and drink tea.
- The lid allows you to push aside floating tea leaves on the surface of the cup for easy tea enjoyment.
Approximate Gaiwan Dimension: 2" ht, 3 1/4" dia
Approximate Plate Dimension: 3/4" ht, 3" dia

Celadon Gaiwan
A beautiful jade green Gaiwan just as pictured. It matches well with my celadon tea cup collection and tea accessories. It also was very well packaged and fast shipping. I used it today for the first time, and I absolutely love it!
