Mother's Day gift wood fired hand-painted peony cups

【Design Concept: King of Flowers and Art of Fire】 The peony symbolizes grandeur and perfection; wood firing is the intertwining of earth and fire. We incorporate the peony, a symbol of wealth and prosperity, into ceramic cups, firing them for several days at temperatures exceeding 1200°C. The ash and fire marks on the cups are natural imprints, making each cup unique, just like a mother's irreplaceable love. 【Features】 • Craftsman's Touch: Handcrafted by Wu Hongrui, a fourth-generation ceramic artist, the cups have a warm, smooth feel that fits comfortably in the palm of your hand. • Natural Ash: No artificial chemical glazes are added; the color of the cups is a natural blend of acacia ash and clay, resulting in a rustic and natural aesthetic. • Softens Water: The far-infrared effect unique to wood-fired ceramics enhances the smoothness and sweetness of tea or coffee. • Limited Edition Peony: The peony motif, specially chosen for Mother's Day, wishes every mother wealth, health, and peace.
