What should I check before choosing a tea set?
Check the included pieces, pot or cup capacity, glaze style, and whether the set matches the recipient’s tea habits or your own serving routine.
Is a tea set better than buying individual cups?
Choose a tea set if you want a coordinated look or a complete gift. Choose individual cups if you prefer collecting different glaze styles one by one.
How should I care for it?
Hand wash gently with a soft sponge, dry it before storage, and avoid abrasive cleaners that may dull the glaze surface.
Is this Glacier Tea Set truly handcrafted by artisans?
Yes, each piece in this set is handcrafted by skilled Jianzhan artisans using traditional techniques passed down through generations. The teapot and cups are individually shaped and kiln-fired, resulting in unique variations in form and glaze.
What creates the icy blue and white glacial texture in the glaze?
The unique glacial ice texture comes from natural oil-spot and crystal patterns formed during high-temperature firing of iron-rich clay. The iron oxides react with the glaze to produce these one-of-a-kind icy blue and white effects that mimic frozen landscapes.

How should I care for my Jianzhan Glacier Tea Set to maintain its beauty?
Hand wash with mild detergent and a soft sponge, avoiding abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the glaze. Season the set by steeping tea in it for a few uses to enhance the glaze's depth, and always air dry completely before storing to prevent moisture damage.
