Welcome. Personally, no saucer because I don't need it and also the tea table I use filters excess tea anyway, like most types.

My needs are:
1. doesn't scorch hands (WITHOUT having to use the saucer)
2. volume: 120ml
3. High porcelain quailty - price isn't a issue as long as it doesn't cost more than 60$.

Please recommend only gaiwans you've already bought and used, and that are possible to purchase online. I don't live in the US so US based vendors aren'ts an advantage.

THANKS !
I don't have a suggestion for a non scorching gaiwan but I simply use one of these when handling my Gaiwan.

Surely that really messes with your dexterity? Seems to me that they'd have to fit very tightly to have any control over thin porcelain.
