Shiuwen measured them (printed gaiwans on her site) at 120ml.

Oooh sorry, forgot to post this. Yes, I get 120ml right up to the lip, anymore would overflow. Working capacity is between 90-100ml.

It's gorgeous, but a bit busier than my preference for most tea sessions. It needs to be on the table with lots of other fancy tableware that it won't find at my house.....but if I had the nice china and silver and crystal to surround it....
