A complete Jingdezhen tea gift bringing Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, and Chrysanthemum together in four 60 ml blue-and-white porcelain tasting cups.
Four Cups, One Complete Story
One Plum, one Orchid, one Bamboo, and one Chrysanthemum cup are presented as a single curated set. The four cups are sold together with their gift box; individual designs are not sold separately.
The Four Gentlemen
In East Asian art, plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum are known as the Four Gentlemen—four botanical subjects associated with resilience, grace, integrity, and calm independence. Together, they bring a quiet cultural story to the tea table.
Four Motifs, Four Expressions
Each cup carries its own botanical composition, giving every guest a distinct motif while the shared porcelain-white and cobalt-blue palette keeps the complete set beautifully harmonious.
Plum · Quiet Strength
A plum branch in cobalt blue brings a sense of resilience and poised beauty. Its confident linework makes this cup a calm reminder of strength held without display.
Orchid · Subtle Grace
Flowing orchid leaves and measured white space create an expression that feels light, graceful, and understated—an elegant companion for a quiet cup of tea.
Bamboo · Upright Spirit
Structured bamboo strokes rise across the rounded cup body with clarity and rhythm. The motif conveys an upright spirit and a quiet strength that remains flexible.
Chrysanthemum · Independent Calm
Layered petals and grounded leaves give the chrysanthemum cup a composed presence. It speaks to calm independence, refinement, and beauty that does not ask for attention.
Blue and White, in Four Expressions
Clean porcelain white, cobalt-blue motifs, a gently flared rim, rounded body, and small foot ring give every cup a tactile balance of decoration and open space.
Sized for Gongfu Tea
Each cup holds approximately 60 ml—small enough for repeated infusions and attentive tasting, yet comfortable in the hand for an unhurried gongfu tea session.
Tea Shared Between Four
Four matching cups turn repeated infusions into a shared ritual. Invite family or close friends to taste the same tea together while each person holds a different member of the complete set.
A Gift with Meaning
The complete four-cup set is presented with its deep indigo rectangular gift box. Quiet in color and rich in story, it is ready for housewarmings, weddings, hosts, tea lovers, and meaningful personal occasions.
Made in Jingdezhen, China
Created in China’s historic porcelain city, this set comes from a place where ceramic knowledge is part of everyday studio life—from forming and finishing to the discipline of the kiln.
A Studio Guided by Hand and Eye
Form, surface, and decoration are considered at close range through a patient ceramic process. Subtle variations are part of the material character that makes porcelain feel personal and alive.
