The cups of a Chinese Tea Set are exquisitely small, designed for savouring small sips. A tactile shape that invites touch with Jo’s classic twisting, wheel-throwing lines undulating up the porcelain vessel. Glazed with tactile, satin-matt stoneware crackle glaze in white reflecting the traditional preference for pale colours in drinking vessels for tea.

As with all pieces in the entire range, each cup is thrown on the wheel by Jo Davies and finished individually by hand.

The elements that make up the Chinese Tea Set can be bought separately and used to perform any function our customers would prefer.

The Chinese Tea Set is a response to the wonderfully diverse tea sets Jo Davies encountered while taking tea on a 2018 trip to Jingdezhen - the home of Chinese porcelain. The Set reflects both the Western and Eastern traditions and rituals of tea drinking, bringing together divergent ideas of form and function in a set that unmistakably carries the unique Jo Davies aesthetic. Created to celebrate the eclectic and traditional tea sets used in daily life in China, you are invited to choose matching or complementary coloured elements in creating your own set.
