Ancient tea cupIn ancient times, teacups were specially used for drinking tea.
During the Tang Dynasty, tea had become a daily drink for people. It was only then that tea cups appeared. At that time, tea cups were often called tea bowls or tea cups. In the poems of the Tang Dynasty, tea cups appeared much more frequently than tea bowls. Many poets such as Lu Tong, Wang Wei, Cen Shen, Yao He, and Bai Juyi had left poems about tea cups (tea bowls, tea cups).
In the Song Dynasty, it was a dynasty that pursued the taste of life. Ordering tea was the daily elegance of the Song people and rose to the level of art. The performance of tea cups in the Song Dynasty was the most outstanding. Not only were there a large number of them, but their shapes were novel and diverse, and their workmanship was exquisite. They achieved a high degree of unity between function and aesthetics, and they had extremely high artistic value and aesthetic quality. At that time, the mainstream aesthetic standards pursued poetry, which created the unique style of tea cups in the Song Dynasty.
Jianzhan was a famous tea cup in the Song Dynasty, produced in the Jian kiln. Jian Kiln was founded in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties. At that time, it was mainly used to make celadon glazed porcelain, with a small amount of black glazed porcelain. The Song Dynasty was the prosperous period of Jian Kiln, with a large number of black-glazed tea cups, and some celadon glazed porcelain and bluish-white glazed porcelain. After the Yuan Dynasty, it gradually declined. In the Qing Dynasty, it was used to make blue-and-white porcelain. The color of the glaze was deep, and the body was thick. It had a mysterious and quiet beauty. It was praised as a porcelain treasure by the porcelain altar as "Black Peony" and was deeply loved by collectors. Song Huizong's "Daguan Tea Theory" mentioned that "the color of the cup is expensive green and black, and the jade is the best. It is also used to glow the color of tea". The reputation of the construction kiln in the Song Dynasty was equivalent to that of Ru kiln, Ding kiln and other famous kilns. At that time, literati talked about it with relish, and Song Huizong also left poems and praises.
In addition to the Jian kiln, the official kiln, Ge kiln, Ding kiln, Jun kiln, Longquan kiln, Jizhou kiln of the Song Dynasty all generally made tea cups. There was a special type of bamboo hat in the Jun kiln, which was popular in the Song Dynasty, especially the Southern Song Dynasty. It was named after its narrow feet and wide mouth like a bamboo hat. It was elegant and elegant when placed on the tea mat.
After the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the teacup was matched with a lid, forming a three-in-one teacup with a lid and a plate, also known as a lid bowl.
In modern times, with the development of the tea ceremony, Japanese tea bowls gradually gained a greater reputation, such as the tea bowls produced by "Le Kiln","Hobe Kiln","Shino Kiln", etc. The Tianmu tea bowl produced by the Jian 'an Kiln of Tianmu Mountain in ancient China was the earliest tea bowl used in the tea ceremony. It was once very expensive, but as the style of the tea ceremony changed, it was rarely used, but its value increased day by day.
