Though the gaiwan has been in use for many years, it is still the preferred tea ware used by tea enthusiasts and tasters today. Gaiwans may be made of a multitude of materials, including porcelain, glass, stone, and Yixing clay. The bowl’s shape is believed to facilitate hot water’s movement, resulting in optimal infusion. The lid keeps heat in and holds back the tea leaves when sipping or pouring. The saucer provides a way to hold the vessel without burning your fingers.
