Inspired by the Year of the Snake in traditional Chinese culture, this tea cup set translates mystery, vitality, and protection into a compact ceremonial object. The relief cup form draws from the snake as a spiritual symbol, while the circular presence of the set creates a quieter and more grounded rhythm for tea.
Material & Craft
Crafted in glaze glass, the cup uses an integrated forming process to bring out the serpent’s dimensional scale texture with clarity and depth. The form references the Yongle-era pressure cup silhouette for a more stable center of gravity and a more natural grip, while the black ebony wood coaster is carved and polished to echo the coiling motion of the snake.
For Quiet Rituals
Designed for tea, quiet gifting, and personal moments at the table, this tea cup set brings symbolic beauty into daily ritual. Its smaller volume, stable form, and warm wood pairing make each pour feel calmer, more intentional, and more closely held in the hand.
