Tea Artisan Series of 2-Way Cup | 茶韻匠心系列
In the millennia-long river of Chinese tea culture, people don't just drink tea—they infuse it with emotion and convey their hearts through vessels. The 2-WayCup upholds its core philosophy of 'dual-sided design for dual drinking experiences,' now venturing into tea ware with the new 2-WayCup Tea Artisan Series 60ml, inviting you to savor two flavors and the essence of four seasons in a single cup.
This series draws from two pillars of traditional Chinese culture, infusing aesthetics and wisdom into every sip. Each cup's Four Gentlemen motifs are hand-painted, ensuring a unique artisanal touch and artistic value.
While rooted in Chinese tea rituals, this series also embraces other tea cultures, such as Japan's delicate matcha or sencha preparations, and Western styles like leisurely black tea or herbal infusions, allowing tea enthusiasts worldwide to explore layered flavors through the dual-edged design.
1. Blue-and-White Porcelain Hues: Timeless Ceramic Soul, Tea's Poetic Palette
Inspired by China's most iconic porcelain craft from the Song and Yuan dynasties, we embrace the classic blue-and-white tones. The interplay of azure and purity evokes blank spaces in landscape paintings or swirling tea mists, embodying the tea ceremony's ideals of clarity, tranquility, elegance, and depth.
Blue: Symbolizes a clear mind and the hue of tea liquor—subtle yet profound.
White Base: Like untouched paper, it holds infinite possibilities, letting the tea's natural colors shine.
In tea rituals, blue-and-white isn't just color; it's an emblem of ethereal restraint, mirroring the focus and calm of brewing.
2. Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, Chrysanthemum: The Four Gentlemen Enter the Cup, Seasons Enter the Senses
The cup's motifs draw from the literati's beloved 'Four Gentlemen'—plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum—not merely for natural beauty, but as symbols of noble character. Each corresponds to a season, reflecting a tea drinker's communion with nature and self. Every pattern is meticulously hand-painted by artisans, adding a one-of-a-kind charm for both use and collection.
Plum | Winter:
Blooms defiantly in snow, signifying resilience and hope. Pair with robust Pu'er or aged teas, enduring like the flower's timeless charm.
Orchid | Spring:
Subtly fragrant and secluded, embodying purity and grace. Ideal for fresh green or white teas, capturing the quiet bloom of early spring.
Bamboo | Summer:
Rises joint by joint, representing integrity and flexibility. Enjoy with refreshing oolongs or Tieguanyin to cool the mind and dispel heat.
Chrysanthemum | Autumn:
Unfazed by frost, symbolizing detachment and steadfastness. Perfect for floral teas or chrysanthemum-Pu'er blends, a soothing balm in crisp fall air.

一|青花瓷色:千年瓷魂,茶道色韻
選用中國瓷器工藝中最經典的青花藍與白瓷色調,延續自宋元以來的審美意境。青與白的交融,如山水留白、如茶煙繚繞,展現出「清、靜、雅、遠」的茶道之美。

杯身裝飾取材於中國文人筆下的「四君子」:梅、蘭、竹、菊,不僅為自然之美,更象徵人品風骨。這四種植物,分別對應四季,亦代表茶人對天地與自我的體悟。每款圖案皆由匠人手工繪製,細膩傳神,增添收藏與使用的獨特樂趣。
