Plum Blossom Underglaze White Bell Cup
This Bell Cup features plum blossoms rendered through Huashan’s distinctive underglaze white technique. White glaze defines the petals, while cobalt blue brings depth to the buds, branches, and surrounding details.
Strong, aged branches contrast with delicate blossoms, while carefully composed negative space recalls the expressive spirit of traditional Chinese painting. Against the cobalt ground, the white plum blossoms appear quiet, luminous, and refined.
Inspired by the silhouette of an inverted bell, the cup features a gently flared rim and a body that gradually narrows toward the foot. Its form helps concentrate the aroma of tea while remaining comfortable to hold, making it particularly suited to fragrant teas such as oolong and black tea.

A quiet branch in winter, the first sign of spring.
The plum blossom does not compete with the flowers of spring. Instead, it blooms while winter still lingers.
For generations, this has made the plum blossom a symbol of resilience, purity, and quiet strength in Chinese literati culture.
Huashan brings this spirit into porcelain through the interplay of cobalt blue and underglaze white. Strong branches stretch naturally across open space, while luminous white blossoms emerge among blue buds and delicate brushwork.
Some branches remain sparse and restrained; others bloom abundantly. Rather than filling every space, the composition allows flowers, branches, and emptiness to breathe together.
As warm tea fills the cup and its fragrance begins to rise, the imagery of plum blossoms becomes part of the tea experience itself.
