Big porcelain gaiwan
PLN48.00PORCELAIN GAIWAN
Glazed entirely, white colour.
Volume: ca. 200ml
Gaiwan is one of the most convenient tea brewing vessels. His name is literally a "bowl with a lid", usually complete with a saucer. Its structure makes virtually every stage of making tea extremely simple: sprinkling leaves, pouring water on them, pouring the infusion into cups. For brewing teas that we do not know, just open the lid to control the degree of brewing the leaves. Porcelain glazed gaiwan is a universal dish, it does not absorb odors, you can use it for various types of teas, and use detergents to clean it.
