The first time I saw this cup, I was immediately drawn to its color. I love how the green and taupe-gray blend together to create a unique tone - like a piece of art. It gives an instant sense of quality, and it’s also wonderfully practical — the size is just perfect for a cup of matcha latte.
It feels beautiful in the hand, with a gentle, soft glaze that's smooth but never overly shiny. Using it for my morning matcha has become a small ritual.
This cup is gorgeous! The colors on here are mesmerizing, and reminds me or whispy thunderclounds with bolts of lightning streaking through. It fits in my hand perfectly, perfectly weighted, and displays the color of my tea beautifully. Definitely a fantastic addition to my tea collection!
The colors not only mimic the depths of the ocean, but also a Midsummer night filled with fireflies in a dense forest. It's very dreamy. I've enjoyed using this as a host cup at my tea workshops. The weight feels nice and the glaze creates a pleasing texture to hold. The traditional "tulip" shape allows for full appreciation of tea aromatics.

I recently added the Celestial Ripple Energy Gaiwan from Glazara’s debut collection to my teaware, and it has quickly become a favorite. The first impression is its striking glaze — a shimmering ripple design in soft, flowing tones that feels both vibrant and serene on the tea tray.
Beyond its beauty, the gaiwan feels wonderful in the hand. The porcelain is smooth and well-balanced, making it easy to hold and brew with during gongfu tea sessions. The lid fits securely, the pour is clean, and the overall brewing experience is effortless.
What makes the Celestial Ripple truly special is its individuality: no two pieces are exactly alike, so each gaiwan is a unique work of porcelain artistry. It’s both a functional brewing vessel and a decorative centerpiece — perfect for elevating daily tea rituals or as a gift for anyone who appreciates luxury Chinese teaware.
Earth in warm ochres and mossy tones to ground every ritual. Water with indigo and sea-glass greens for peaceful reflection.
Fire in rich ambers and deep reds to ignite your evenings. Air with soft whites and cool blues for calm mornings.
