White Porcelain Ruochenuo (Ping Pong Cup) – A Masterpiece of Traditional Chinese Tea Ware
The RuoChenUo, commonly known as the "Ping Pong Cup," is a classic piece of traditional Chinese tea ware and one of the esteemed "Four Treasures" of the tea room.
This exquisite white porcelain cup is as thin as paper and as white as snow, embodying elegance and precision in its design. One style resembles half a ping pong ball, while another mimics a miniature flared rice bowl. Remarkably compact, three cups stacked together can fit entirely inside the mouth without being visible.
The term Ruochenuo originates from the Chaozhou Kongfu Tea tradition, where it is celebrated as an essential tea accessory for enjoying oolong tea.
Renowned for enhancing the aroma of tea, the Ping Pong Cup has been cherished for its remarkable craftsmanship. This particular piece has been part of a private collection in Singapore since 1980, embodying timeless artistry and the refined pleasures of tea appreciation.
With a capacity of approximately 30ml, a diameter of 47mm, and a height of 25mm, the Ping Pong Cup is not only perfect for savouring tea but also serves as a prized collector's item that pays homage to the enduring legacy of Chinese tea culture.
Price for a set of 3 pieces.
