Purple Sky | 紫空 | Handcrafted Wood-Fired Tea Cup

A celestial dance of fire and clay, Purple Sky (紫空) is a handcrafted tea cup that captures the quiet mystery of the night sky. With deep smoky hues and soft cosmic speckles born from the unpredictable magic of high-temperature wood-firing, this handmade teacup becomes a twilight canvas—each one entirely unique, marked by the fleeting beauty of flame.

The delicate gradient of purples, muted greys, and ember-touched earth tones creates a serene yet arresting contrast. This artisan tea cup not only pleases the eye but also elevates the sensory ritual of tea drinking. Its subtly flared rim encourages the bloom of aromas, while the silky-smooth surface invites touch and quiet reflection.

Inside the teacup, a naturally formed kiln tear rests like a turquoise oasis—glass-like and smooth to the eye and hand. This rare phenomenon occurs when ash from wood and straw melts under intense heat and flows gently onto the ceramic surface. The result is a vibrant pool of texture and color, suspended in time—an exquisite mark of true kiln-born alchemy.

With an 80mL capacity, Purple Sky is a celebration of the handmade, the elemental, and the momentary. A handcrafted teacup for those who find wonder in starlight and stillness.
