I feel like I SHOULD bring you oranges while you're in jail.
By the way there are more lovely tea sets and gaiwans and tea caddies and more on the same website: if only I spoke Chinese I would have already inquired for one (or more!).

That's "da big house" in New York translation.
We need to find Sal a tin gaiwan for raking against the bars. New teaware topic!

Wing Hop Fung in LA (parent company of Bird Pick) has a similar one, but it's fairly expensive ($150 or so). I can try to take a picture for you next time I'm there, because I'm sure Bird Pick might mail order it for you even if they don't normally carry it.

Just a tin cup is needed. Not even Lipton in da big house, some generic brand. But maybe they will let him photo it for us!

LOL! We'll have to sneak him in a tea-filled pomelo and pretend it's an orange!

I normally don't care for the blue and white stuff, but even I think that one is amazing

I've seen a link to a set like that here on TeaChat in the last couple of weeks, but can't remember where.
The website was in English, but I don't remember what the price was. Anyhoo ... it's a beautiful set!

True - I have very, very few pieces with any blue. Ironically though, my first piece was a blue glaze rice pattern cup from Chinatown many, many years ago.

Besides my ingenuitea, my first and only teaware is a blue/white dragon on sea gaiwan. Its the most manly/boyish design I could find at the time...

Looks like common hand-painted Jingdezhen porcelain, you can fine them many in China.
Couldn't see it closer but with efforts of drawing, name of masters, method of making(qinghua,fencai,youzhongcai etc), price might differ on it.

In fact, if I'm not wrong, the price is ¥ 360元, which should be about 53 USD.
I cannot understand if this is a wholesale website or not. Would like to know if they ship abroad.
