Purchased in Shanghai and used only once for Japanese tea. I am listing it for sale as I have not used it since. zenlifestore (鉦藝廊) is a long-established porcelain shop representing Shanghai, with the motto "Chinese style, Shanghai flavor." The works, hand-painted meticulously by artisans, feature motifs of flowers and birds, and have a gorgeous yet nostalgic feel. As all works are hand-painted by artisans, there are individual differences. There may be black spots (iron particles), small protrusions, bubbles, distortions, glaze smudges, color unevenness, bleeding, and color fading, but these are not considered defective products. Based on the above, this product has no scratches or stains.
