Turn your name into a personalized tea cup! Chinese characters are sculpted into the form of the cup itself, creating subtle undulations that catch light and reveal the strokes from every angle. 

Each character cup embodies the union of ancient script and contemporary craftsmanship. Drawing inspiration from the classical Thousand Character Classic, the design transforms two‑dimensional calligraphy into a tactile three‑dimensional experience. 

This concept is supported by a hybrid process: 3D printing establishes the precise topography of each character, while skilled artisans finish and refine the piece by hand. The cups are fashioned from a proprietary “jade porcelain clay” in which pigments are blended into the body, then fired at around 1 ,320 °C to achieve a lustrous, translucent finish.

The pieces are suitable for tea or coffee, and the delicate relief makes them as pleasurable to hold as they are to behold.

Single Cup Gift Box - Default packaging for individual cup.

Duo Cup Gift Box - Select any two characters and we’ll present them side by side in one elegant box — perfect for couples or complementary characters.
