Gongfu Tea Sets

Gongfu Teasets: Your Complete Gateway to Tea Mastery

In Chinese culture, Gongfu Cha (功夫茶) translates to "Making Tea with Effort" or "Tea Skill." It is a ritual that transforms a simple drink into a meditative art form. At Jiangnan Sourcing, we take the guesswork out of building your tea table by offering curated Gongfu Teasets. Each set is expertly matched for size, material, and aesthetic, providing everything you need to perform a traditional tea ceremony at home.

What’s Inside a Traditional Set?

• The Brewing Vessel: A Gaiwan (the "Universal" lidded bowl) or a Teapot (Yixing clay or Porcelain).
• The Fairness Pitcher (Cha Hai): Ensures every guest receives a brew of equal strength and clarity.
• Tasting Cups: Small, delicate cups designed to concentrate the aroma and allow for slow sipping.
• Tea Strainer: A fine mesh filter to ensure your tea remains crystal clear.

Why Buy a Curated Set?

• Aesthetic Harmony: Every piece features matching glazes or motifs, creating a beautiful visual center for your tea room.
• Precision Sizing: We ensure the volume of the teapot matches the pitcher, preventing overflows.
• Value & Convenience: The fastest and most cost-effective way for a beginner to start their Gongfu journey with professional-grade gear.
