Sometimes it's hard to find a balance between handmade and essentials teaware.
If you are looking for the perfect bridge, this is the set.
With the action these sets get in the kiln combined with Liu's glazing experience,
regardless of which one you go with,
this set feels like a cut above your average starter set.
A set that new tea drinkers can appreciate as it's a forgiving brew cup with little chance of burns but also each piece has enough balance, weight, and intrigue to bring seasoned small pot lovers along for the journey or as Derek uses it...
as a travel set or guest set to leave at friends' houses to start down the rabbit hole in other spaces.
The Gaiwan is exactly what I was looking for, its not huge so its easy to use one handed, the matching cup and pitcher are perfect, and the pitcher is the optimal size where one full gaiwan perfectly fits into the pitcher. Very well made and clearly by someone who cares about the longevity and function of their products.

Absolutely gorgeous! The gaiwan pours like a dream, fair cup is the perfect size, and I love that the sipping cup fits perfectly in my hands. I had a great tea session with it today, and cannot wait for more!

3Piece Suit = Good Tea Vibes
I bought the three piece suite about 2 months ago and its been my daily driver for making tea ever since. I absolutely love the aesthetic that this set delivers in combination with my similarly colored Kettle. The quality of these pieces is amazing.

Wonderful Simplicity
Have only got a few uses out of this so far, but I am loving having a "proper set" where each piece is the same design. The glaze has just enough texture between rough and smooth. And the "dripping" glaze, having a few small areas where it ends, makes me think of a shimmering raindrop.

I love this teaware set!
This teaware set is as beautiful as it appears in the photos. The beautiful glaze colors form a random flowing/drip pattern that feels great in the hand. The pieces are perfectly sized for each other. Such a pleasure to use and what a great value!
