A handmade lidded porcelain gaiwan in a soft celadon-white glaze, hand-written in cobalt blue with lines from Zhang Dai's Ming-dynasty essay “Viewing Snow from the Lake Pavilion” (湖心亭看雪). The lid carries the characters 湖心, and its knob is dressed with a delicate strand of small pearls and turquoise-blue and coral-orange beads.
A quiet, literary piece for brewing and serving tea at the scholar's table.
