Nicely painted fish teacups.

I’m going to counter with these neat little fish cups, scummy water feature and all! http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2013-chinese-porcelain-tea-cups-and-saucers-tea-mug-Hand-painted-two-fish-More-color-8/921027287.html

The outside glaze matches cups I have!

I collect blue and white though. I adore these cups as well.

Too good to be true? My experience is that hand painted and that white bubble glaze is much more expensive than this!

Cute set!

yyz said

Nice!

Equusfell said

It’s not a scam?!

AllanK said

Probably not actually hand made or hand painted.

Equusfell said

Yeah, the pattern on the cups looks way too consistent, but still, so cheap!

I never order from a seller without feedback.

Equusfell said

Yup, I messaged them just in case, but I think I shall abandon it in favor of the fishy cups in the above post!

Nice cups. I have some of the first set and I love them.

Nicole said

Okay, you just need to stop. :) I have been wanting the horse cups forever. And I’ve bookmarked way too many teaware pages in the last couple of days.

Ubacat said

Nicole, they are cute aren’t they? A little on the small side though. I like my cups a little bit larger.

yyz, those are the ones I’m leaning most toward. Gotta have a red one at least and love the blue ones.

I have no one to drink tea with me and appreciate the beauty of these things! I don’t need full sets. But the want is strong for this in the lotus pattern.

I just ordered cups and another travel set from Yunnan Sourcing. I should not be looking at any more teaware.

You don’t need anyone else to appreciate it. Beautiful teaware enhances the experience. You deserve that even when enjoying it by yourself. :))

Nicole said

And you are nothing but an enabler. I know you. :)

But you are right…

Ubacat said

Oh so pretty! Dexter is right. Just enjoy it yourself. You can always take pics and post here .

Found this gaiwan and purchased it. I had a $15 off coupon for DTH so it seemed the thing to buy.

Dexter said

I love how rough and rustic that is. Love it. :))

AllanK said

I loved it too that’s why I bought it. That and I got it for $13.50.

Ubacat said

13.50??!! What a deal. I like the look of that one too.

That was my top pick for a tea pet until I met my fat horse!

Really like this nifty little teapot: https://www.taiwanteacrafts.com/product/turret-smaller-teapot

It’s like a hybrid easy gaiwan and a teapot.

Etsy has been KILLING me with their yixing teapots and gong fu cha equipment. I love the gaiwan Jade dragon set! Beautiful.
