Unexpected delight!

At first glance and handling it seemed to be the thinnest ceramic I have ever touched. Yet, after using it for a few weeks now I've enjoyed it very much and happy to add to my collection. The size is great to handle as a petite person. It retains heat well and doesn't burn your fingers despite the thin ceramic. I absolutely love the unique design and PARU partnership with it. The cups are small and I do prefer my own, so the gaiwan is the star for me. Absolutely love and would recommend. Quick and careful shipping.

Good Tactile, Great Pour

The thin Bone China and slight raise on the fan patterning is pleasant to the touch. The lip is pronounced, size fits well in my small-to-medium hand, and lid motion is smooth, all aiding in a smooth and clean pour.

The bottom of the gaiwan does stain slightly if not wiped soon following use.

Overall, very cute and satisfying piece. Can show off to friends, as well
